New rig day!

[Chris A]

Like the van, drives a lot different than the Chevy's for sure. Machine seems nice, only used it for a minute today, gotta get all this shit in the back unpacked and organized tomorrow. Good times!

[Old Coastie]

Looks better than my van.

 

[Zion Carpet Cleaning]

That is a sweet set up. Congrats!

 

[DAT]

Love it. How much for everything?

That’s being a bit nosey

They said they're backordered

It was a touch under $70k all in. About $10000 more than our last two trucks, Chevy's with pro1200se direct drives. I am curious to see what the water usage is compared to the pro1200s, since I'm sure this truck will bypass some water, but it certainly gets hotter and gets there quicker than the pro1200s. Sadly I'll probably only get to use this truck until Thanksgiving then I'm going to turn it over to one of my guys.

Turn the heat down.

Why the 250 instead of the 350?

Congratulations!!

 

[Chris A]

I would have had to order a 350. The gvw difference is 500 lbs and I'm well under even with full waste and water tanks. I was a little leery of not having the 4.10s but it handles fine and seems to have enough power, but not much extra lol

 

[Chris A]

Turn the heat down to what? Low?

 

[Chris A]

It's a big van I will say that!

 

[Mikey P]

why are you parked in your rug pit?

 

[Chris A]

That's my rug "pit"

 

[Mikey P]

whats that building run a month out there

$400?

 

[Chris A]

I bought it for $120000, but have put $50,000 in it, and need to put another 10 or so into remodeling the office. I have 5000 feet of warehouse space and 1200 office in a decent blue collar hood in Akron OH. My nut is about $1500/month with taxes and utilities and it will be paid off in 12 years. There are a couple benefits of living in the Midwest lol.

With the water box upgrade it hardly dumps at all.

Your right! I was pleasantly surprised with my water usage on my 5 room 2 chair job today

 

[Chris A]

That cdv filter is pretty nice too I haven't used an external filter in a long time, the 1200s have a pull out filter behind the vac ports

Depending on lot size, exterior parking, that would go for 700k in my area
