I want one more new TM and van setup, so I was wondering if there is any web site that compares them all ---side by side?? Heck...even a slightly used, repo'ed TM might interest me. I like the bigger units because we do dual wand, but I don't want it to take up the whole van like my Genny.

No Butler-type units need apply.

Go with a Judson..

Joey would you mind posting pictures of your new setup. I know you said you were looking at different models (TCS diesel, TCS Chief, 370, El diablo). What did you end up getting and how do you like it?

Did you get a Judson?

PM Joey and work it out in private please.

Joey was just having some fun with me and he got me good. Joey is a funny guy for sure. He isn't the first to stretch the truth. He had me fired up when he said he got a new Sprinter, had two Everests, and was running 18 trucks. Like I said he was just having some fun with me.

Dual wand machine yet with a smaller footprint.


You know....I was looking at the SS, and damn if ol' Jimmy Pemberton doesn't sell them! I bought my 405 Performer from him in1995. I'll have to give him a call.

I also found a used Powerclean Freedom??, I think it's called, with about 350 hours on it and a load of extras. I just want to find a machine with a smaller footprint than the Genesis.

Thanks, Doc.

Check with Jim, he won't steer you wrong.
That small footprint is a big selling point for me, we can never have enough room. The small footprint with the dual wand capability is a rarity amongst other TM's.

I would like a TM with a smaller footprint so I can purchase a regular sized van, not extended. More options available on the regular sized Chevy Express. They offer a cool option.....where the 1/4 windows would normally go in a passenger van, they offer tilt out panels....you can open up the van to lot's of cooling air in the hot months.

You can also get side cargo doors on the driver side with the standard size van. Get to the rear of the machine with no problem!

So since you're adding to the collection, maybe time to get rid of one? 8)

why not get one of the van front and single axle box trucks like the plumbers use here is a link

http://www.morgancorp.com/products/parc ... allery.asp

they make these in 12 foot lengths, the box starts right behind the seats, with a small door that you can use to service the front of your machine. but having everything mounted in box, the odors and heat stay back there, while the AC is confined to the small cab area can you say refrigerator AC
