How has the whole V ownership experience been for you?


What would it take for you to buy another one?






Someone else go first.

Take care,

V gave me confidence to charge more money, I'm not as tired at the end of the day, and its faster.

But, think the HX systems are over-engineered.

On the lookout for a big truck w/ oil fired burner :-)

Anyone willing to sell me their ZeroRez?

I seriously love mine. It's a great LOOKING machine (great professional image) and it's performance is outstanding. I used to wonder how folks could seriously say that it improved their production times ... but you just have to experience it to believe it. The only problem I have with owning it is that I am underutilizing it big time. I have a good bit of jobs that I COULD be dual wanding on, but now that my son has flown the coop, I find myself single wanding with it on most jobs, and that is a waste.

If I end up selling it, I will miss it and probably regret selling it. However, single wanding with one is just ... well ... not real bright.

Time will tell.

But one thing is for sure. I don't regret the purchase and am glad to have finally used one and know what they are capable of.

Only way I would ever buy another is to convince me with out a doubt that the manufacture at the time will be in it for the long haul.

And I don't mean "long" in Yappy years.


Then convince me that my model wont be obsolete in a year.








F' it.

The Vortex experience for me has been a blessing and a curse. They have put us at the top of our market, in the 32 years that I have been in this business, I have never cleaned as easy or fast as I do now.
I have had to identify and repair a few major problems that should have never left the factory, but I have been working with three guys that have listened and have helped solve the issues, one at a time. Chuck Cushman and Kevin Miller have worked with me to come to a solution to some perplexing problems. Jim Pemberton has been a gentleman and a supporting distributor that has no competition within our industry. I would be willing to buy again, but it would have to be as Mikey said, from someone who is in it for the long haul. Somone who would listen to the people that run them everyday.

Better hurry up, I hear they are losing value by the hour these days......lol

For the single wand guy, it's pretty hard to shake a stick at the new 170 gal 500 cfm 240 deg Judson C-4, it just makes sense.

For Dual wand, I say g'head buy a Vortex, it's nice rig, of course I also thiink the PowerClean Diesel DXT is real nice too. After 600 cfm....do I need any more for two wands?
