My buffer should be here on Tuesday Should of been here on Thursday, the guy was using a company that would have brought it up to me for Ģ57. Thought it sounded cheap! They went bust! lol and now the guy had to find another courier company at his expense.

With truck mounts so cheap these days and the earning potential so great, I suppose it begs the question - WHY Not a Truck Mount?

I'm happy with my triple vac thanks

To be honest, it's the cost of parts and labour that frighten me off, I've chatted with quite a few Ex-TM owners who pointed this consideration out. Quit recently I had someone ring up asking what I thought of my porty, because they were getting rid of their TM.

When the porty goes t-up, they are easy to fix and parts are relatively cheap.

I'm not ruling a TM out in the future though, but now's not the time for me...

[Simon Gerrard]

Colin,

I can't remember the last time I had to shell out any significant amount of money on either parts or labour for my TM. The Ex-TM owners you've been speaking to must have had some pretty unusual experiences because the vast majorty of TM'ers would say that maintenance costs pale into insignificants in relation to there massive earning power.

i'd agree with simon to be fair! the money i've earnt so far and the amount of work i can fit in now compared to when i had a porty the costs really would pale into significants!

just my penneth worth!

Colin I have an old steamway 9100lx with close on 6000 hrs and even though it does need more tlc than my previous excellent powerflite machine it gets me more work and i am lucky enough to be close enough to mpms the engineers who cover the hydramster servicing .Regards Alan(swindon)

I'm hoping they will have one on show at the Cleaning Show at the NEC this week.

Simon,

I have a Phoenix over in Mallorca and use it for 600 feet boats and rugs. In the past I had Maxx 470Ļs and donīt notice the difference. Also (sorry John) itīs worth speaking to Mr Gotts about the price. He is a big lad and takes a bit of feeding but he knows how to make you feel happy when you leave, so donīt be afraid to haggle. And their service is the best.

[Simon Gerrard]

David,

Don't worry, I've got Mr Gotts under control, I get my Hydramaster Titan 875 from him so he has to look after me or else!!!!

Simon

[Simon Gerrard]

Was the Pheonix at the show last week?

Simon

[jon barnes]

Nope

[Joe H]

Was Hydramaster at the show?

[Simon Gerrard]

Joe,

I don't think they bother with shows anymore - too expensive, they say.

Fair play to him! Cheaper than having a stand! I handed a few of the leaflets out as well!

Matt,
I was making a very generalized point. Not thinking that I might be picked up for not having considered every conceivable endeavor a small business person might get involved in.

 Be honest you just didnt think it through did you, i know a guy who got Ģ50,000  in just a few seconds with only Ģ5 outlay
Far more profitable than your silly truckmount, i'm off to get a scratchcard too.

A fool and his Truck Mount charges less in order to do more.

A clever man and his Porti charges more in order to do less.
