Hey Marty

[Vinnie]

Now that you sold your V, what are you using now or what kind of Mach. will you get.

 

[Cameron1]

Yes...tell us Marty. After all your real world experience with the mighty V , and all those walk ups what unit could even come close to all that heat,vac, and bs ?.

Vinnie:
I will be glad to answer you question, but excuse me for one moment while I take care of a little business.

Cameron ... kiss my ass.

Now, back to Vinnie. Thank you for asking. I bought a TCS Chief II, but not until I had them make a couple of changes to it. I had them put 3 inch ports on the waste tank and bring both to a manifold built onto the side of the unit. This allowed me to have much better air flow than what you get with their standard set up. It also allows me to work out of the side door, instead of the back. I had 2.5 ports installed at the manifold. I don't dual wand with it, I may try at some point, but I imagine two 150 hoses would have about as much suction as what a 33 blower puts out. However, one 150 hose with the first being 2.5, it gives me the same dry times I used to get with the V when single wanding with it.

I had them put a #4 Little Giant heater in it instead of the standard #3 they normally use. It will give me instant gum melting heat.

I have a standard Chevy 3500 van, so with the addition of the #4 heater, I decided to take out the standard 175 gallon waste tank and go with a 100 gallon to give me a bit more room. I got an auto pump out with it.

Did I forget to tell Cameron to kiss my ass?

Good for you Marty.

I see you were selling your gh. You're smarter than I thought you were. You are selling your overhyped _______.

It comes with a 4HT Heater ,dumbass... you didn't upgrade it

TCS CHIEF II

Standard Features


27 HP Kohler
Sutorbilt 4L @495 cfm
Cat 290 @ 1200 psi
Little Giant 4HT @ 180,000 btu's

300' vacuum hose and reel
300' solution hose and live reel
150' water supply and live reel
55 gallon fresh water
175 gallon recovery
The Chief II is the flagship of the TCS line. Powered by the legendary Kohler 27, the high-performance 4LP (#47) blower provides all the flow you need for dual-wand performance. The additional air flow and waste capacity make the Chief II an ideal choice for the serious restoration professional. Cleaning in dual-wand configuration helps cut the amount of time it takes on large cleaning jobs in half. Another feature is the 180,000 btu propane heater that provides sizzle, even with both wands working at the same time. The Chief II will be the last truckmount you ever have to buy. No other machine at this price can match the performance and dependability of the Chief II!

Total Cost: $18,475.00

Lol, *insert hoof in _ _ _ _ _!*

Must be a sweet sounding machine...

 

[hogjowl]

They changed that as a result of seeing how my unit performed.

They love me over there.

 

[Brian R]

Marty,
Work on your marketing and your machine expense won't matter....as much.

 

[FB7777]

of course they did...

and Vortex folded when they got wind you were selling out :roll:

 

[hogjowl]

Fred ... are you skyping now too?

 

[Cameron1]

They must have sold you on the walk ups



By the way, did you upgrade to a larger belly mount propane tank?

If not, you might want to get a refill tank installed at the farm.

 

[Lyman]

Same dry times with a 33 blower, marty come on, you know better then that.

 

[Bob Savage]

Lyman, I believe what Marty said.

The design itself of a vacuum system can completely change (markedly improve) the vacuum ability of a given vacuum source - i.e., a 33 blower in the right vacuum system design will kick ***.

 

[cu]

bout time you came back to the real world.now be happy , make some money, stop reading ics posts about uping your price's and shut the fook up

do any 33 blowers kick ass with 150ft of hose?

 

[joeynbgky]

good job marty! I love my chief. So if I say I want the Marty upgrade special I can get the 2.5 and upgrades you had them do? I'm glad I bought my TCS now, you went from a V back to TCS. Guess that means I made a wise buying decision. Thanks Marty for making me more confident

 

[joeynbgky]

Marty can we see some pics of the unit? I'm jelous

Uh, I wouldn't take it that far...

 

[joeynbgky]

[Desk Jockey]

Easy there fellas, our hero is no dummy. Heck, the upgraded heater only cost an additional $400.00. :shock:

 

[hogjowl]

I have a new blackberry phone that is supposed to let me take pictures and put them on the net. Soon as I figure out how to do that, I'll put some up.

I have read what Bob Savage said I said and after three attempts, I still aint sure it I said that or not.

 

[Brian R]

Make sure the Blackberry is on. :mrgreen:

Ok, I'm done with the "on" jokes....I tend to go overboard. Sorry.

 

[Pmatte]

Who wants to see pics of Marty's unit :shock:

 

[Doug Cox]

So, How close to the asking price did you get on the V Mart?

 

[ruff]

bout time you came back to the real world.now be happy , make some money, stop reading ics posts about uping your price's and shut the fook up

Listen to CU!

 

[Cameron1]

ok Ned...its been a couple weeks and still no pictures. So, your still trying to figure out how to use that Blackberry or just hoping that this topic will just go away.



ps how are the walk-ups coming

 

[Jim Nazarian]

If you cant figure out how to get pics from your phone to your PC & then to a hosting site then use iTookThisOnMyPhone its pretty easy.
