I figure you just got better drugs.that damn Gurkink made me go all nuts in the head

Marty, if I can fix most things on a butler then you can do about 99.9%.
Aside from not having blown a transmission (I don't know why anyone would have tranny problems with a D/D) I've had all those repairs and more made on my van. But I put heavy hours on my units; 22000 hours on my last Pro1200 and 11,000 hours on my current one, and with 150000 mile also on this engine I think it gives excellent reliability. Repairs to my van are made quickly by my local Goodyear repair place, usually in a 1/2 day. I can see putting 20000 hours easy on this machine, and getting another five years out of it, without even worrying about a machine breakdown. And I can close and lock the doors while working, which is great in bitter cold temperatures. I can't even imagine working with a side in. Ugh, disgusting, smelly, hot and high maintenance.do they have a higher rate of failure in DD's compared to slide ins??
I've been running slide-in for 25 years.
never blew a tranny, never replaced a water pump , never had a wiring/computer failure.
and only one of the half dozen vans I've owned were new
..L.T.A.
Stick it in a box truck and you don't have to live any of that. Plus if you buy water cooled and you won't have the high maintenance either and still get the long life.I can't even imagine working with a side in. Ugh, disgusting, smelly, hot and high maintenance.
Turn your van on and let it idle. That is what it is doing when running a D/D. That will answer your question.Question??
Does a pto run the transmission while the truckmount it running??
If so a transmission replacement is something to think about???
47 Tuthill is their larger blower and high heat unit...What size is the blower on the butler? 45?
The Everest I priced a few weeks ago was around 30k without a van. I can get a new Spartan van for around 30k also. Linex, racks and I'm way past a PTO.Not bad mouthing the pto....just double the price af a slide in is all I am saying...better be worth the money? ?
You could buy 2 vans and 2 slide ins for that amount and it would have the same heat and vacuum....
And run a crew......
Ok I. See the pto for around 22-24 kGround control to Captain America.:
I don't know where and what brand of slide in you're buying. The ones who buy a good PTO usually do not buy a Garage made slide in, we buy an equivalent. Meaning a heavy duty engine and so forth. As our main concern is dependability.
The price of the Apex I had was pretty much the same as the price of any PTO Ive owned.
