Surely you jest.  I and others are quite satisfied with a growing number of customers who have now experienced and see the merit to the next generation in cleaning methods created for the 21st Century.  I entreat you to continue with your preferred method.  You seem comfortable with it and trust your choice.

I am curious though.  If you don't own a Mytee, what brand portable do you own and use on a daily basis?
Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?

Seems SLG struck a cord with that comment of his.  So has this just been a poorly orchestrated attack by Mytee all along?  Perhaps.  In reading the posting by Grutzy I sensed a lack of polish industry professionals possess.  Generally that implies there might be an absence of honesty at the heart of the posters.  In my time here I have seen a few such individuals.  I haven't seen one yet that moves beyond the One Hit Wonder status.

Have fun.  I have a another few of these threaded message bases to read post haste and I am off to the first job of the day.

Do you know of a Mytee with those components? Maybe it would be best for an Oregon mountain man to stay home and off the computer, where he could make such a fool of himself.

Well I have a porty set up with four 3 stage vacs, 800 psi pump, auto fill and dump and wouldn't mind a bit to see the industry go upside down.

Agreed Ken.  Either portys or a better energy source.  And the way people go around with eyes wide shut, it looks like portys or OPs.

Some operators will have no choice soon but to get the most powerful portable they can buy to do their cleaning.
 
In the next few years we are going to have $10 to $15/gal gas in the USA. When that day arrives you can bet that most of the gasoline powered equipment will be expensive paperweights and the manufacturers of the equipment will shut their doors and find other things to do.Only those with the high powered electrics will be left standing.The Pentagon says this will be a reality($10 to $15 gas)by 2015, but I think you will see it happen before then. Not alot of time to prepare either way.

Did you not notice that I use both portables and truckmounts? Sometimes it doesn't matter which one you use but other times, the truckmount will do a better job. And I am talking about a much more powerful portable than any stock machine. Anything under 200 cfm's and 175" lift isn't going to stand a chance. You really need to get these two figures at least up to 250 or so on a portable. Stop crying like a jealous fool just because you cannot afford a truckmount. I don't think many in this business begin with a tm so most of us have been where you are. There isn't any reason for you to feel inferior and lash out like you do.

I cant work @ no fast food joint i got some talent dont you get my point? Top rank point blank. After 26yrs i can take a kirby and get any carpet as clean as can be "The cleanest clean you've ever seen".. Mind you, the extra heat/vac makes me money faster and faster.
With a TM you can double double triple the cleaning and drying speed and money.Smokey
