firetruck and saved every house on his street but homes all around them burned down. Title: Re: Contemplating this purchase!??!!!??!! Post by: Kilroy on November 07, 2008, 06:24:05 pm If I had the cash, and the room, I'd have it in my driveway.
But theen, I always want 100 ft or so of railway track and a caboose to put it on.... Title: Re: Contemplating this purchase!??!!!??!! Post by: Jim on November 07, 2008, 07:21:18 pm Pretty Kewl ! ! !
It has a front-mounted pump that I'll guess is rated at 500 gpm based on the two-2 1/2" discharges. General rule of thumb is 250 gpm per 2 1/2" discharge. How much is the seller asking...? Does everything still function and does it run...? Title: Re: Contemplating this purchase!??!!!??!! Post by: SIGNGUY on November 07, 2008, 10:51:27 pm How much is the seller asking...?

If he says no and it sits for several more weeks he might be ready to sell. After all you said you don't really need it. |
