  OK I'M totally new to this but have been doing alot of research today.
 
 
So far I'd like to take an expert's advice on here and maybe get a turboteck portable he said to get started.
 
  The big advantage of having the van/truckmount seems to be if someone had a  problem with water in the basement kind of thing and  then with the van u can charge big emergency money if u can get these jobs  sometimes right?

Big advantages of truckmounts....

1.A great part is the convenience of being able to pull hoses in to the house and be cleaning in 5-10 minutes .
2. not having to always stop and dump water and fill water etc.
3. You have a constant hot water source.
4. which you use at 450 P.S.I. most portables are at 100 P.S.I.

I have always been able to get a loan that stretches the payment to less than the 350.00 or so per month . And have always found good used equipment . especially now with the internet and google it is wonderful .
