Billy Hicks showed up at Florida Connections with his new AT

[White-Magic rebuilder]

How come we aren't seeing pictures of the hicks new truck ??

I agree, bring'em!

74k for a Butler in a box truck?

It's sharp looking, but it damn well better be for the price, what's different about it over the van's? Heat? Vac?

commercial Diesel truck body alone is 30+, the box isn't standard $$, fresh water tank, waste water, hose reels, shelving 74K is reasonable.


The real issue is what performance does it bring to the table?

 

[Greenie]

Isn't an AT like $4K more?

 

[hogjowl]

Harry ... you're starting to make me a little nervous.

 

[rhyde]

Isn't an AT like $4K more?

NO...the base price of aerotech is 72,987.00 ....$1013.00 less than the butler if the butler price is accurate ?

When i purchased my Vortex the price difference between a Aerotech and my 7000 hat was around 5K

 

[joedobbins]

I had a personal tour of it by Billy, Audrea and Christopher. It was definitely awesome! Great looking rig.

They are right, the Aero Tech actually costs less than the Butler.
The Butler does come with more shelving, but if you took the extra money the Butler cost you could have some custom shelving built for the AT and have a much more powerful machine...same money.

Also did you notice even on the 1 1/2 inch wand there was a glide...
how is it they can sell glides?

The V with 7000 HAT lists for 81,995... 9,000 more than the AT now.

 

[Mikey P]

Well after all the Aerotech is a Vortex with out soul so it should be cheaper.

 

[rhyde]

The V with 7000 HAT lists for 81,995... 9,000 more than the AT now.

actually it's about 7,100.00 if you look at the little things the HAT comes standard with that AT charges for full 400 Ft of hose, door storage racks, stereo, wheel simulators

 

[Greenie]

Just for the record, if you want to compare AT and the V, shouldn't you compare apples to apples? a Vortex 6008 would be a proper comparison not a 7000.

 

[Guest]

Thats one hell of an expensive adapter plate.

 

[vincent]

OOOOOh big Ouch

 

[rhyde]

AT base 72,987 Vortex 6008 75,400 price difference 2413.00


The Vortex now comes standards with 220 gallon fresh water tank 10 gallons more than AT and Vortex Ad Agency Marketing Materials Package is included

AT, Water Pump, 6gpm, 1500psi max.

Vortex, Cat 4.5 GPM High Pressure Pump 2750 PSI Max


Are the blowers the same in both trucks?

 

[Guest]

Why does one need 2750 PSI???


How many people really use a 74k pressure washer daily? I could see the GPM for tile cleaning....but washing scum off with and using it as a pressure washer? It would be fun to run 3 turbos at once.
