Buying a truckmount is like going to the casino, sometime you win and more than likely you will lose. Bought many a new unit over the years and some days I wish I had never seen a truckmount.  You certainly need to be mechanical to keep these things running. Best investment I ever made was a lift truck so we can pull our units out of the truck to work on them, as they are a pig to work on in the truck, got the lift truck for a $100.00 it has paid for itself many a time over. 

I couldn't agree more with Cleanex AND Ted H. on this issue.

And, for that very reason, that is why after a couple of failed ventures with machines, I had to start designing my own PORTABLE equipment that had the high-performance ,and could be run 100-200 feet as a TRUCKMOUNT -----------------without the headaches and heartaches.

 

Fortunately for me, it really worked and took me from the bottom of the barrel with about a nichol (5 cents) in my pocket to a few more dollars and a much larger wallet in mmy back pocket. A great learning lesson for me!

 

Good Fortune to all;

I don't agree with these guys... everything breaks down...

Techs just want to jump in the damn truck everyday and never service it.. same thing with a portable... samething with anything

service service service..

I have two truck mounts ... I have had very  very little problems with my pro-chem and well over 6000 hours on it..

SERVICE!
