New Truckmount

[jmo]

What did you guys end up paying for your new truckmounts?
And what TM did you buy?
I’ve never bought new is it like buying a car where you never pay sticker price?

 

[Lee Stockwell]

I'll never buy new again.

However I'm always looking for gently used newbie mistakes to buy cheap.

So did you pay full asking price?

If they did they did they will never admit it. Customer appreciation sales or end of the year floor model is where I have seen the best price.

Retail. 35k for a Prochem Everest 650 hp. It's been a great machine so far.

I think I bought my Titan575 for around $25k. About $550/month financing. I saw a deal for around $450/month in one of our carpet cleaning magazines recently. It must be some deal through the financing company to drop it that cheap

Avoid machines made in Texas or Indiana.

Based on our experience with the Everest's forebear, the 405, I agree.

Tell them your shopping for the best price installed,Between brand a & b, Sometimes they throw in free install. Best price gets the sell.

I was asking about Everest and the shop was saying steering me away and pushing something smaller. Saying Everest is great when running but if it has problems hard to trouble shoot and fix.

Was that price installed with reels?

 

[Desk Jockey]

Yes. The whole enchilada.

I have 30 hours on it so far. It's been great. The only hickup was with the transit. The factory fuel tap won't let you run the machine much below 1/4 tank.

370 is the same


As I whould imagine the 650

Shouldn't let your tank get that low anyway. When I an getting close to a quarter tank, I fill it up. Your fuel pump will thank you for it.

That was one of the reasons I chose a box truck over getting a van. I had enough room to install a separate fuel tank just for the truckmount. So instead of having both units on one, 30gallon, gas tank...I now have 2, 30 gallon tanks for both the truck and the truckmount. It would be so annoying having to go to the gas station every day
