Used ninja 250 - $800
5500 watt generator - $400
Water tanks - $200
Vac booster - $800?
Total - $2200


TM - $10,000+?


Where can I find a truck mount for 2-3 thousand dollars?

HOw much is all that gonna cost???...Im going to echo what is said above "Sounds like the price of a used TM".

I started out when I was 21 (Im 26 now). And I borrowed money from my parents to buy my first USED (it was a 1990)Butler. WOrked and saved and now I got myself another used Butler (2002).

NOw I dont have to depend on my mommy anymore WhoOOoHooo.

Anywqays, What Im tryin to say is....Is there anyway you can borrow from Family??


I'll make you TAP OUT!!!

I am currently saving up to start working for myself and cleaning carpets around town, and I have been looking at the available options.

Currently my budget is limiting me to buying a portable extractor.  Im only 20 so I dont have enough credit to get a truckmount, nor do I want to be in debt starting out.

I know that truckmounts are superior to portables.  But like I said, my budget....


Well here is my idea:

Purchase a recoil 2 and add a vac booster.  I will be picking up a generator, so no need to worry about blown circuits.  I am also going to install water tanks in my truck so I wont have to get water from customers, one for fresh water, one for dirty water.   I plan on leaving the portable in the truck,  so I can dump and fill easily. 

Would this be a plausible idea?  The only thing left in question now is heat.  What would be the best method of heat with this setup?
