Yet Another Toy - 01-19-2007, 04:16 PM

Picked it up from my distributor today.
Mytee HP60
I cannot wait to use it.......freaking weather....
Has a blower on it as well, with an extra long hose. Has so much force behind it, it would probably blow your eye out the back of your head! lol
Powerful!!!!



Sorry, had to brag...

Ran me right around $900
I put down a couple hundred, and the rest, I can pay whenever I have the cash.
No interest on it, no taxes either....
My distributor is the best!

I love accounts...lol
Mine will let me pay longer than 90 days. Not that I want to. I like to pay everything off as as soon as possible. I hate payments....

I hooked it up in the house, and the suction on the vac is crazy!!!!!!!!!
I also put the hose on for a blower, and blew all the papers off my desk....from across the room....

Congratulations.

Am I out of touch or is that a smokin' deal?

Edit to add: Does that unit require 2 15 amp breakers? One for the heater and one for the vac.

Wow...That is a great deal! You'll be able to "kick it up a notch" now.

Congratulations on your purchase. I am sure you won't be disapointed.

Dave

P.S. I received the check in sheet. Thanks

First the nifty trailer and now this. I think there is a little bit of jealousy kicking in. Congrats on your newest toy! I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
