New Transit 350- $52,000
Reels, tanks, shelves etc - $10,000


How's your credit?

Those are the VAT numbers of 10 years ago.

My last three purchasers of those units at that price range were owner operators, only one of which dual wands at times with his son, and has some 400' hose runs. The other two just own 200' of hose and do primarily residential work.

Why people buy what they do isn't always for actual performance need.

I would bet that 90% of the time, big unit/ truck purchases are based on impressing and or pissing off the competition

We have a guy with two trucks on the road here.

He has a "9" on one truck and a "23" on the other. Most of his competition think he has at least 23 trucks on the road.

:biggrin:
I put a #7 on my TOPs



So, Jim...

How much in todays dollar would it cost to set up a new cleaner with a minivan, a CRB, TOPS, some vacuums, uph scrubbers, a small extractor, uph tool, wand etc?

Less than 40K, depending on the size of the OP and small portable.

I figured it with the Ford Transit Connect at about 30K.

It might be all that but I would rather mop a floor then use that one time...Butler only here,an the use 3 wand's bs...Those fat never cleaners need to use there heads on that suggestion...If only the industry would actually use there own junk they make ,then again -YA OK !!! Too huge takes up way to much floor space built with no van ergonomics in mind also ... Nah...An Mike if they are using your glides inform the dummies to use the Brand name so as to get a true glide designed by a man who knows...

You charge that much when you get free chems?!? :lol:

You have to give them the 5,400sf X .20cents = $1,080 then you donate back 25% to the church.. :cool:

Brutal.

I’m very happy with my 2,100 hr machine. I kiss it every morning and wipe it down with a $100 bill.

Yeah. The new machine is expensive. I think the Ca compliant smog bullcrap may be a factor.
Ahh....exactly where do you kiss it?

Butler and "van ergonomics" shouldn't be allowed in the same sentence
