I'll spend _____________for my next Truck Mount

[dealtimeman]

:shock:

 

[Rafa L]

my nurf ball and ductape unit has more then enough power and most likely surpasses most of the over priced spinner bait machines.....best part - it paid for itself within 2-3 months at the most.

Damm thing sucks so much and heat that boils....I've order a second clunker as a back up........less then 10k.....this one comes with a free screw driver from harbor freight......

cheers..........


suckers.

Did you get the infamous Nellos reach around with that nerf valve?

 

[Ed]

Mike, you left off the disclaimer.

"not that there's anything wrong with that"

 

[Jim Pemberton]

I try to put up a safe, "techy" poll and it still ends up all about freeflow.

Lord help us all.........

 

[Mikey P]

Well Jim, I plan to spend $3299.95 on my next slapped togethered pos truckmount so lets hear what my options are.

 

[truckmount girl]

Sigh.....please.

Take care,
Lisa

 

[Mikey P]

Look Mother Hubbard, I'm doing my best here so kma..





at least I didn't spell out POS TM for key word searches.

 

[truckmount girl]

Is P not back yet?

Take care,
Lisa

 

[Mikey P]

you gonna rat me out?

 

[Jim Pemberton]

Back to our regularly scheduled program.

Comments that do not include your next truck mount purchase will be deleted.........

Yes, that means you brother Mikey

 

[Desk Jockey]

Jim did the poll reflect what you thought it would?

50-under $30,000 out of 66 votes cast.

 

[Mikey P]

after a solid 8.6 hours of use on my Lunchpail I would recommend one to any non metro cleaner looking for a simple as can be machine that kicks ass and is way less then any other machine in it's class.



available at your local Pemberton's Piggly Wiggly of course.

[quote="Mike Draper":tfjfcuro]Either a new butler or an Aerotech. We are close to picking up an commercial contract for 50k a year, so in that case we will buy an AT, if we don't get it, then it will be a Butler.

That's like saying If I cant buy the Boeing 757 I'm going to settle for a lawn mower.[/quote:tfjfcuro]


What I am saying is that there is no need for me to run an AT if I am not going to dual wand every week with it. just like the garbage pail, a new pimped butler will clean with the best of them. :wink:

 

[Jim Pemberton]

Richard

I'll run the poll longer, but yes, its consistent with what I've been seeing in the Mid Atlantic and what I'm hearing nationwide.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Is that a change from the norm?

I always assumed the majority of the units sold would be in the mid to lower tiers.

 

[Jim Pemberton]

I don't want to skew any participation by saying much yet. I'll share it when the poll dies down sometime next week.

But it is a change.

 

[SRI Cleaning]

I have another Mercedes Diesel engine I could make into another TM. 8)

You have any more pics of that? I would love to get my hands on a project like that. where did you get the blower?
Thanks,
Anthony

 

[Bob Savage]

Mikey,

I'm curious.

I don't know if you've tested this out yet, but, do you think you can clean at a higher production rate with your V, than you can clean with the Lunchpail? ...with equally comparable jobs.

 

[Curtis Pennington]

Did you get the infamous Nellos reach around with that nerf valve?

and?

 

[Curtis Pennington]

Next one is gonna be a refurb, already bought the van. (paid for)

 

[bob vawter]

The machine that set the worlds record for training time....ONE DAY!

under $10,000.00

BTW...that is a Pitts clutch..........

what??? inside...OK.....

clean as a pin!

 

[Mikey P]

With just one wand on the V?


The cleaning/rinsing part of the job would be exactly the same, set up and tear down would be about 10 minutes quicker with the V do to now electric reel, no fresh and a small van where everything needs to be.


But like I told my good buddy Yappers McYork today, if my V disappear tonight I would order a Hino or Isuzu truck with the same Vortex sized box but with two Lunchpails in it sharing a 300 gal freshy.

 

[Bob Savage]

Thanks Mikey.

Doesn't the Lunchpail run dual wands too? So, that would make comparing the 2 as far as production rates do-able.

I think one can reel up on a manual vacuum reel just as fast (within a few seconds), as an electric vacuum reel.

It's just less effort with an electric reel.

 

[Guest]

I checked less than 10k for one of the following;

1. Recoil Next Generation with External Next Generation Booster and Kero Heater
2. EZ Truck Mount Custom with Kero Heater
3. Savage

I will post some older pics I have at the shop PC.

The #5 Sutorbilt on it is older than I am, and my dad found it in a scrap yard when I was 3 years old. And I'm about to rebuild it and use a #45 until its done.

To be honest I have only dual o upholstery so far.

I'll take two wands with me next time it see action just for you Bob.

I don't think ill ever buy another pto machine like I have now. As far as the poll goes I chose 20-25 since that's about what I expect my replacement machine will cost that will meet my requirements.

What I want is a heat exchange machine that will dual wand. I don't want to notice when a wand is off the ground nor notice a drop in heat when both wands, at 12 flow, are being used compared to one wand and I want to have high pressure with heat. Of course with reliability and reasonable fuel consumption. Of course all in a box truck.

I would recommend an Everest 650 for you then. Good for dual wanding at 2-300 ft hose runs.

I've got my eye on the dxt genesis right now and I know they run about 27 but I'm hopeing something slightly cheaper will be out when I'm ready. The everest don't make the heat I want anyway.
