What price are they offering? Is it just the machine and waste tank, or do you get reals? If you are single wanding you would only run the truck mount at half its speed any more would be a waste. It would be like buying a race car and driving it in traffic. How many hours does the unit have on it? Depending on the price may be better to get something that matches what you need.

Yes alot of service. I like the performance of the 427 but it does take considerable service. I will tell you almost everyone that I have sold has come back for trade.
Don't waste your time, or time will waste you.

Hey everyone, my name is Tyler and I've been cleaning carpet going on about 7 years now.  I have always used a Hydramaster cds 4.8.  I'm starting my own business now and I am going to start out with a Boxxer 427.  My question if anyone knows is how does the Boxxer 427 compare with other truckmounts performance-wise?

From what i heard if you were in the market for a new tm you should have bought by the end of the year as most manufactures increased their prices by 10 to 15% so much for our canadian buying power.
