I would only go for a TM if I had the work to justify having it so maybe what you need to do is sell a marketing program with a free TM  ;D

Honestly Simon with newer model blazer selling on ebay for £1500, you'd be fortunate to shift yours. As has been said, its a sign of the times. But i do agree with you a TM is a natural progression, still use portable and LM but once you get a TM clean a customer never wants anything else.

A new Titan you probably lose 10k, but Simons blazer no depreciation but you will replace parts. Engine is probably 1k pump 500, but they go on and on. How long does a vac motor last? THe key though is to focus on increased revenues. Commercial work, faster work rate.





I don't know where you get that idea.I had to get rid of my truckmount,just so i could do more commercial.You can't get TM up to the 25 floor with sealed windows.

You have very strange logic down under. You didn't HAVE TO sell your truck mount to do office block commercial work. What you are actually saying is you had to sell it because YOU couldn't get enough work for it.

It's not expensive, you just can't afford it.
