Well after talking to Brian from Xtreme Pressure Washing in Oklahoma, and going to see first hand how the dealership washing goes, we decided to add it to our services. We got 1 300 car dealership already. here are some pics of the rig.

Now you need to sticker it up. I would use all that flat space on the trailer for stickers. Just wondering that looks like a harbor frieght motor with a direct drive cat pump. What made you go with a cheap motor and expensive pump? The tailer looks like it will work good for small dealerships and easy to pull around by workers.

Stickering it up is already in the works. Yeah it's a Greyhound motor. I have easy access for warranty and I get them for right at $300.00 for a 13hp electric start. I already had the pump from a skid I converted over to a belt drive and held on to the pump. The rear and right side of the trailer fold down exposing all that upper space for storage.
 
We actually meet Danny at the 11/14/09 RT event in Ft Worth, TX. Danny is a top notch guy. We will be going to TX in a couple of weeks to help Danny out with the car lot. 300 cars is a lot if you havent done them before.

Danny and his son came down a few weeks ago and worked with us on one of our lots to see how it was. They both caught on very fast. I can see Danny growing this part of his company very fast.
 
Rigs look good Danny.

Good Luck!

HA HA I had that roof lined up to be washed and video taped by AC Lockyer using his new Softwash Systems equipment and chemicals, but he said it wasn't dirty enough. So, now I guess I'll wash it on my own.
 
Decent service with knock-off engines here, I have 4 of them but you will need to get the warranty and a large bottle of loctite to secure all bolts before they fall apart. I have been through about 10 of these engines and the main problem is they fall apart fromthey way they are put together, the only one I have had actually break down was from the starter going out and I didn't want to pull the cord so it went back as well. I suggest tearing them up every 89 days and taking it back because if you wait until after 90 days then you will use the warranty and be out of luck after that on getting a replacement. There is a factory replacement up to 90 days and they will give you one off the shelve
 
Thats a nice rig for car lots Danny you will be able to get around the lot well with that. When I first started out I used to wash a lot of car lots hopefully they pay you faster than I used to have to deal with.
 
OK Paul?

Paul, are you feeling ok? You look like crap!
