Shower 2-2.5 gallons per minute. Old shower heads use as much as 4 gallons per minute.

Has anyone ever done a study to find out if the newer, low flow showerheads actually save water? All mine does is waste time, since it takes me longer to rinse the shampoo out of my hair.

‘________since it takes me longer to rinse the shampoo out of my hair.’

Ditto having low flush toilets - often flush twice to accomplish the job - - -

(Your ‘about’ info) What a timely read of your truck exploits. I want a truck (cab back) for my next ‘auto.’ Where do you put the groceries/any items, if all the rear seats are occupied?
I need something that displays intimidation and high visibility to others on the road, and in parking lots. Vroooom! Along with my ‘lack of height,’ my white-bread, conservative, four door sedan is not cutting it, with the mind-set of current-day drivers.
At the same time, I have had this conservative (new at the time) auto since 1 week before 9-11-01, and have not had ONE days trouble with it! It has been HIGHLY dependable - must be a huge fluke, and I lucked out purchasing it!

No study needed. Your experience is universal. Low-flow shower head = longer shower = no water savings and wasted time.
