Sorry Guys, Yes, 24hp. My bad. I ran Jeff's WaterCannon at a bank. Seemed like a breeze. Just wanted to know of other models. I'll most likely order one this week. Thanks to all!

Maybe you have stage fright about speaking, but you can surely motivate with your writing ! I want to wash ! wash! wash!:cheers:

20hp,8GPM, 4500PSI, 2 wand system,when needed. Thanks Alan

Like I said Jeff, GETERDUN !!!! You do inspire me and I appreciate it

I am trying to narrow down my skid unit choice. The dealer 3 miles from home [very convienient] Has quoted me a hot water unit, 8 GPM, 3500 PSI, 2 reels, 100' of 3/4 hose on both, 325 gal. tank, 25 HP HONDA, 12 V system made by KASCHOR [?] With tandum trailer. 10K. What do ya'll think ? It will be set up for two wands. He will throw in some nozzles and wands. I can see how to save a few hundred bucks by getting everything seperate, but with him down the road for repairs, etc., it would be good. I just don't know about the name brand. Thanks in advance for your input.

Yea Brent, I'm working with Wayne.

Alan, You are right, 24HP. Theres enough room to put a truck type tool box on. Thanks to everyone for the input. All things considered, I'll probobly get this unit.

Jeff, we touched on this a bit last week end. I am a sales manager and a part time musician. I went in front of crowds reluctantly, because it was the only way to get my message across. The main thing to remember is that you know much more about what you are talking about than anyone in the group. Practice your presentation with your wife, or a mirror, driving down the road. Introduce yourself, your cridentials, your experience. Get the crowd involved. Ask what is most important to them. There will be only 3. Quality, time and price. The latter should be dismissed. There is always a cheeper price. Sell them on the other 2. Remember, you know more about what you are talking about than anyone there. Get your introduction down, and the rest is easy. You will actually start to welcome these speaking opportunities before long. You get to present your services in one meeting instead of many meetings. Believe me, after getting the meeting going, hand out some fliers outlining your services, explaning why you are the best choice, you will welcome and enjoy your speaking engagments. Call me any time to help you with this. I may have a lot to learn about the PW biz, but I am a pro at sell:lgkick: ing.

Go to www.1800333wash.com. Look at the skid units. I'm thinking seriously about the 5.6 or the 8.

I am in the start up phase as well. I will have about 12k with insurance, equipment, LLC, etc. I am using a home equity to finance. With this being a relitivly small amount for a start up biz, it seems to be the way to go, as it will help with my taxes. I am not an experienced washer, but I am an experienced business person. Don't go cheap. Have all of your ducks in a row and jump in. No one gets anywhere playing it 100% safe. Work hard, smart, do good work and you have a great chance of making it.

Being a new guy to the business, I ordered it. For 10 bucks it does give some good basic information. Well worth the price.
