    Brooms are for cleaning the driveway, not power washers. Using a power washer is an extreme waste of water and electricity. That is up there with leaf blowers when a rake or broom would suffice. IMO.

    I have a concrete driveway with a oak tree over it... pressure washer is needed to clean it. Lucky I only need to do it once a year. I also have a big ass gas pressure washer though.

    I usually wash my truck right before sundown. That way I'm not rushed because the sun is drying the body before I get to clean all the road grime off. Just a suggestion.

    Can I join? It’s not mobile but this is my cleaning section of the garage. My foam cannon is a sudmagic (but I don’t use it often because the best foaming action is if the bottle is horizontal :annoyed: and I’m not sure why) which is a huge pita- paired with a gas3100 psi 2.5 gpm. But the foam cannon doesn’t replace a bucket (but think pre-soak)

    For the zoomers, garage isn’t cleaned like Normal. House mods have taken priority the last couple weekends hence the wood/scrap pile and the microfiber sack needs washing and no I dont use the brush on the truck (kept from the last, 16yr old, truck)

    I like that set up!

    A wall mount vacuum (Ridgid) is next on the list for garage mods. Truck and woodshop stuff are higher on the list though.

    Thanks, it’s taken some thought to utilize the very limited space in the 1 car garage (I can still pull in halfway or back in halfway to do work out of the sun). The vacuum is bad ass, wall mount was a must and it’s strictly for the truck. Suction is amazing (comparable to the commercial car wash units imo). Only negative is it’s only dry Unless you buy an add on for the wet which I will someday.

    Yeah me too and in the shade, but most of the time it's hot over here. Guess I need a new washing system :)

    Ummm duh... HI. Which also supports your use of a pressure washer on the driveway. Only way to get rid of the red dirt and black mold. Lived in Waipahu for just shy of 3 years.

    Nope. Definitely needed for the spring clean to get the road salt off the concrete after winter.

    I don't know, depends on how good your well is... the one thing I don't miss about living in the mountains was during winter time with a crap well. It was bad enough having to pay for your black water to be taken away but when you had to pay for water to be delivered during the winter and then pay for it to be taken away was a double whammy. Waipahu, never been to Oahu, was that recently?

    Well, not cistern, so no water delivery or recovery. Ours is pretty well established and has been actively used since the 60s. Also only only 17’ so if we needed to go deeper, we easily could.

    12’-15’.

    Winch cutoff switch? Could you explain more? I just got this winch today and I'm assuming this is a 3rd party add-on you're doing

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    I pulled mine a year ago and noticed no change.
