Don't be jealous guys....2006 RAM C/V

Orbot w/Sprayborg
CRB
Oreck Orbiter
Stepson
Multisprayer
Too many vacs

These pics are several years old, so please forgive the supremely hackish wet/dry vac and pump-up sprayer

I was going thru this decision at the end of last year.

I decided on a full size Ford Transit with a Powerstroke diesel. I keep all the HWE in the rear and VLM/repair tools in the front half.

Hey....this is for hacks only!

 

[Mikey P]

Keep 'em coming!!

 

[Lefty724]

Hey....this is for hacks only!

LoL!

Since the pic, I have sold the Trinity and am now using a 175 and Oreck Orbiter as my VLM equipment. That should help me out....

I'm looking at the Mercedes Metris, a bit bigger than the NV200 and Transit Connects, much bigger engine and payload capacity, with better fuel economy.
And only a few K more.

That's a good looking van.I wish it were front wheel drive.

How tall are they? Doubt they would fit in my 8 ft high garage.

My van is the high roof HD model. I think it's 9' from the factory.

Mine is a little lower since all the equipment is over the read axle. I can fit into 9' carports...barely

I cleaned five jobs with the guys today..
At each one I thought long and deep about how I would attack without an Aerotech...


Most of them looked very good after prespray and a heavy scrubbing.

Most home owners would have been happy



But I need to figure out an economical way to do the next and proper step..

Keeping it very simple. I was gonna clean it up and show it loaded, but you can figure it out. 3 sheets exterior grade plywood, some screws and an hour. Throw an entrance mat in - good to go. I can stuff the Warrior in beside that one the days I need to dual wand. The second row seats fold if I need the room. 2014 Caravan.

And no charge to Warrington for showing the flex. The burnisher doesn't normally live there, but I had a buffing to do.

Jesus. Even I know you need a TM. A porty is fine and I use one every day on some situations, but if that was all I had and I didn't have a TM, I would tie a 50# kettlebell to my ankle and jump into a bog.

 

[Willy P]

It's all in how you choose your weapons. The machines I use all have 500 psi pumps, one cat and 3 pumptechs. All have dual 3 stage vacs and a heated water supply. The Warriors are 3250 watt inline units, the perfect heat is another animal. Parts aren't expensive and my fuel bill is minimal.It fits in my mini van quite nicely. A full tank will clean on average three 150 to 200 sf rooms, more if it's bedrooms with little to move with proper jetting. I have a little Sebo crb and a 175 when I need more aggression. It gets the grunge out quite well and it must please the customers because they seem to be happy with the results - and since they sign the cheques, that's all that matters. Keeping it simple works for me.
