Here's a small list of keywords that you should probably have in your meta tags... they all pertain to Michigan (I have no idea whether they are landmarks, counties, towns/townships, rivers or whatever, I'm sure you will recognize some if not most of these names... remove the --------------'s they are only there to separate alphabeticall)

Zeeland,
OBVIOUSLY, this list can also be supplemented by every make and model of car you can think of ALONG with generic detailing terms (Wax, wash, polish etc etc)
The biggest thing you have to do is get content on your site and links into it
IF you could create a separate page with each of these separated towns or whatever for your website along with other customized tags specifically for you both in the URL and the "Meta Tags", you'd find yourslef getting listed in the google pages!
REMEMBER, even if you don't service these areas directly, you might know someone who does, referrals work great AND they are generally bi-directional
