Decided to hold off on the elaborate ramp system for now.

A vortex can't hold all my junk.

I have to go get it weighed to see if I have to trim the load or not. I think it's OK, seems to drive and handle well. Stops good too.

Nice set-up! You spent some time and money. With all the rigs I have a chance to see, it's a breath of fresh air to see one so well laid out and clean!


One thing I did notice. Unless all your using your respirator for is dusty conditions your organic vapor cartridge will continue to work unless it's put in a sealed container. So it's basically useless the next time you use it to apply your Microban.

I'm guessing you already know that but I thought I'd point it out anyway.

:D

Johnnyone: No satellite but it does have a GPS navigation system in it. As for the spider box, I just got it yesterday because we've had a bunch of jobs where it would have easily paid for itself. Now I'll probably never need the thing again, LOL. It's on the truck because it was shipped to my house and my wife would kill me if I kept it inside. Still waiting on the power cords ... back ordered.

Odin: Yeah ... it's Zep. Had a VCT job on very short notice and they wanted a low price so they got the Home Depot special, LOL.

MicahR: I know. I left it out by accident. Got some spare cartridges in the cabinets. Funny though, I used the thing for a few months not knowing that it had to be sealed up after each use. Thought it was odd that I could still smell and taste the products I was spraying. Should have read the directions the first time.

Anyway, here's a couple of pics of the outside.

Very nice!

I've gotta know though. You started building that Bad Boy a long time before you (and others) posted about our slowing economy.

Fast forward a bit. Would you order a truck like that again today?

Been asking myself the same question. Either way, I needed another truck. Maybe I wouldn't have gone all out but I would have gotten something new or near new. Right now I'm up to around $38,500 in this truck.

The truck sends out a loud message that your serious about your work. Great curb appeal.

Howard Beach. I know you must be kidding! How can you call Dan's rig "average at best" ?

You got any equity in your Rotovac start-up package?
