RC Reviews

Man, I'm lovin how easy this board is.
Kinda dead though. Don't ya'll have any friends?
The old cafe had lotsa guys but mostly cuz I wouldn't sell to them unless they posted.
We all saw how that worked out.
I think ya'll need to invite your friends, like Ryan & Eric.

I'm thinkin we need some surveys too, that's why I started this thread here.
Ya'll could all vote on the best in each class.

So sick of hearing from the guy who just bought a new unit, hates his hose, his wand, his cuffs, filters, etc.
I wanna survey of accessories specialists.
Like best wands, hose cuffs, glides, price+service=value, etc.
I think I'd win.
Need a way to jog their memory to call me before they sign their life away.
But I always get them after the fact.
What can I tell guys to stop them from falling for all the overpriced, low quality stuff they're getting with their tm packages?

Joe it's like a bad Date. Sometimes you don't know any better till your half way through the date.

I went on a real bad date.

Problem is when you are buying a new truckmount, it isn't a date...it's a marriage! If you choose poorly, there is no easy way out.

I've been looking at adding a second mount over the winter and after watching what is out there in the used market, it looks like a lot of middle-aged divorced women with baggage.

Another is most come with cheap wand and 200' of vac and solution hose.

The ones that I have seen this month come with all the junk that the guy is dying to get rid of at the same time. Used parts, broken parts, bad hose, rusty screwdrivers, and of course the wrappers and cans of lunches past!

A word of advice, if they can't bother to toss out the fast food remains when they list it for sale, you don't want it. It also expalains why the guy went under in the first place.

Love my Lil better hose (2 inch and 2.5), my cool cuffs (both 2, 2.5 and almost forgot about my 1.5 for my small tools), my pimped out PC Titanium wands...so many great improvements over the years that just make cleaning plain fun!

I do love my Butler Truckmounts as well. They have always been great and reliable for my families for years.

Had to get things going in a fun positive way .

Best Packing of more stuff in a small box:  Joe, by a mile! Not even David Copperfield can beat him.

Great list! I agree with almost everything on there.

Only just recieved my order from Joe so only observations thus far on the hoses however just from getting the lil better hose out from the shipping box its totally noticeable how much softer/user friendly this hose is.Have been using regular solution hose uptill now,got skinny in with the order so will be using that now to compare.
Best wand for commercial used to be 16" evo but couldnt handle the heat,currently is VT14
Best wand for houses either the VT or PCQ
Best cuffs cool cuffs without a doubt
Not sure about the best glides am giving the lip glides in my order a go
Best wand valves stainless soft touch way to go
Best value/service Joe at Wanders keeping in mind im over the other side of the world and Joe looks after me like i was just down his street

Best supplier that can pimp out your equipment, with out trying to sell you another piece of equipment. Wanders by a land slide.

Hey Joe what ya got that can make me a better cleaner? Nothing Ryan you bought everything I sell. Now I just call Joe to talk about hunting and how I don't know how to do a load of laundry.

My most important thing I gauge a supplier by is how they listen and cater to my system, not their show room.

It's funny 90% of my supplies come from out of state small business suppliers.

The Red Release works too. I'm too impatience Joe, I use the iron. Still working in how to make a video of this process.
