The folks that are likely to have actually crunched the numbers have never owned the cheap ones.
what class are these, Porky??
and didn't you own one or two
TCS TMs??
In truckmounts, I learned the hard way that you can save the money two ways:
A solid, reliable, more expensive unit that’ll have less downtime
what are talking about, Goober ?
do you know if that TM is reliable or not....( I don't)
or are you just blowing bubbles??(I don't)
There are lot of "garage built" TMs that run reliably
I posted pics of two of
TCS TMs .
There's a whole bunch of Juddstone TnT's and Sunbelts (private labeled TnT) running every day too.
would you buy TM made by Draper? (his SteamPunk is uglyasfck) but I'll bet it runs
They're all not all DooWayne-o-matics , or a Nickllett units or Chemtex Panthers
I don't know if it's reliable or not...but from a "GearHead's" point of view, it looks pretty damn solid to me
