    Using customers electricity and water supply

    If you plan to use customers water make sure its not hard water (well water). Using hard water just one time is enough to make you want to get your own tank. Also, not all houses use 20 amp breakers, so keep that in mind if any of your equipment requires over 15 amps. So, if your extractor...

    Mine did the same thing. One of the lights flickers and is much more dim than the other. Also my light as a parasitic drain. The batteries go dead after 2 days if I don't use it. My light was new in November.

    Mechanic thought he was doing me a favor

    All the stress involved going back, getting mad at people, trying to get them to pay, filling claims. Not worth it to me, I would chalk it up as a learning experience, and polish the car back yourself the way you want it. Whos to say a body shop will buff it out right, to your expectations...

For under the wheel wells and other sensitive areas I would try the PW first without pulling the trigger, as there is quite a...

    Van or enclosed trailer

    Yeah, I've been looking for a van too, just a little bit out of by budget. Maybe I should buy a van with high miles then upgrade to a nicer van in the future. I've been looking at Chevy express 1500s, I might be able to get a decent one with high miles for about 5k that will last a few years...
