dual wanding is the only way to make money.


Oh I'm sorry I missed that part about the industry...


I guess a lot of people that aren't even on these boards but run successful multi truck outfits, don't make money and can't make money without dual wanding...

Ken Snow- any comments?

I never could figure out why they designed that angle into the front of the 777 version



Ron, correct me If'n I am wrong but weren't you single wanding in your first years of ownership?

So you can close the roll-up door with the machine running without bumping attached pressure lines.

When I first started, when I hired lance six months in we were dual wanding most days.

Never understood why they painted stainless tanks?

I am currently on the hunt for our fourth one.

Crap- I knew we've been doing things wrong for 73 years, now I finally know what it is!

I'm sure Ron was just caught up in the moment making that comment about only making money when dual wanding...But I felt like- Ken you were a good name to throw in there to dispute that clame..

Why doesen't Shawn start building the again............?????

I'm reasonably sure it's because...
he can't find a biz pard'ner with poor enough judgement to build/bankroll a large dollar project that only fits a tiny niche pool of prospects in a small industry that's already saturated with manufactures reeling from poor TM sales .
and the only ones that were remotely "possibly" dumb enough to take the ri$k... have already gone belly-up

AND

he doesn't have the mean$ to bankroll it himself


I've always admired Yappy's tenaciousness , but his hay day has long since past and i don't see anything on the economic horizon that will bring that hay day back anytime soon


He'll have to have a contract in hand like the Venturi one that put him on the map to take to a manufacture before anyone with the capacity to build it will ever touch it
