No worries, THUGVILLIANS, many of those automated car washes will be bankrupt or abandoned within two years.

...

Market saturation is referred to as the point of a product life cycle where the good or service is being made available to consumers to such a large extent that any new product idea will not be accepted in said market.

...

From such point onwards, one company cannot gain new market share (in the same market, for the same product) without eroding another company's market share.

...

THUGVILLE will soon face a massive abandoned building crisis, think Detroit.

Ugh. That's exactly what we need..... ANOTHER car wash.
