I run a PTO I like the idea of a slide in more because of the fact that you're not reving up the van all day Pto's are great if you have employees though,it doesn't get much simpler than 3 switches and the engine gets warmed up on the way to the job |

The thing is Ted PTO's is so much easier for the dummies to use.....A slide-in you have to be a master.... I burn at least 1000 bucks of fuel a month in my slide in.... the PTO burns at least 1500...... it's a lot of money to put out every month |

I've been preaching this for years now. It is inevitable that gas will rise. But you have to sell what people want. Sometimes I lose sales because I am too persistent to save a customer money. Thanks for the reinforcing. |
