Like I'm making this stuff up! I think it's the Ultimate Guzzler. It has 2 pockets sewn in each end, like a carpenters apron. It's the very bottom one in this pic. I'm tellin you, it has pockets!! Works great though.

Even when damp/wet, there are hardly any trails left with this towel. I have about 40 old cotton towels that my wife will soon be thrilled about, because I am finally going to get rid of them (well, I'm going to "store" them out of eye sight...they're still good for cleaning the inside of the exhaust tips.... )

Streaks you say? From what? Water streaks/"trails," or actual marking on the paint? That could be from non-rinsed shampoo or areas where the dirt didn't get washed off?

Seeing is believing! I have the medium-sized one, and it doesn't have pockets. So, it must be just the larger one, as you mentioned. Weird.
