Does anyone here own one or knows someone who does? They appear to be a straight forward machine, easy to work on,etc. The Big Daddy really seems like alot of bang for the buck.

wouldn't that also apply to every direct drive unit?
..L.T.A.
packfancjh said:IMO no because you have only one V8 in the vehicle that you are using not two.

So no, its not over-kill... its under-kill :|

It is a carpet cleaning machine, other than "I want something cool looking" taking up space in my van, we know far to much on how to better get "performance" from a more reasonable machine than to cater to either this or the Big Daddy design.
Just curious, before you give it the Thumbs Up, how many are out there? I don't know of ONE Big Daddy actually earning someone a living?
