I have a chance to buy a truckmount. Here are the details. The van is a 2006 ford e-2500 . Year is 2006 with 39,000 original miles. The interior has been line xed and it has a soft water tank installed. The machine is a Prochem Performer 405 with only 195 original hrs. Price is 34,000. Good deal or not?

I think they're too high.

KBB suggested retail on the van is $13k retail..

$34,000
-13,000
-----------
= $21,000.00

Are you willing to pay $21000.00 for a used Prochem Performer?

Screw that!!!

I'd offer them half of what their asking...

Too much, seems very high to me. See if he will sell the unit separate from the van. ????

Here is a comparable with newer technology cleaning unit and newer truck and yet it’s cheaper.

I wouldn't buy it unless it was around 25-27k providing there were no real issues with the machine or van.

I tell you what... over the next 4-5 months or so, you should start seeing killer deals on some equipment because of the companies going under during the winter. You already start seeing them on Craigslist now.

Ask for a rebate?

Sorry copied several and went back and got the price after, must have mixed them up.
