For Porty AND TMer AND LMer Owners Only-Poll

The Porty/TM debate goes on. But as much as I love the set up I've got, I would certainly run a TM if I could.

I know it's early days, but couldn't the 4 of you who have voted no so far just have humoured the TM boys?

i think you could re jig this poll... how many TM would go back to running a porty ( if they could get their TM big bucks they have invested back?)...

I know it is heresy for some but if I was given a T/M I would sell it to the highest bidder and I am not joking.

hi
i thought long and hard about this and no i wouldnt. I do believe they are quicker than a porty and in some case can get a better result.

however i can not escape the fact if i was so busy on carpets i was struggling to get them done with a porty
guess what i would get another porty!!

I dont care how fast the guys are on tm they cant beat being on two sites at the same time.

I do a lot of work in highrise apartments where a TM would just not be a viable option. Im also very happy with the results I get as are my customers so have need to upgrade at present.

Go on, admit it, you all want one

They sure do

I voted no.

Its not the money thats the problem. I'll soon be buying the new Airflex Storm, and with new/better wand, magma heater and silencer, it'll be very close to Prowler money.

For me its the fact that its going to be a total nightmare doing jobs in my city! There are so many friggin parking restrictions all over the place. Most streets are permit holder only's and the only "pay and display" spaces are across the road, at the end of the street! Plus i do alot of apartments.

There are a couple of truckmount operators in my city, i have no idea how they manage. Maybe they do bungalows only with drives.

I bet half those yes's are from TM guys!

I dont want one ... as it means you have to have lots of websites

MOST TM OPERATORS have used or still own a porty

I dont think that MOST PORTY OWNERS have also owned a TM

So...

Fair point, but I think some people have very valid reasons NOT for wanting to own a TM. Maybe we should do a poll asking how many ex TM owners are out there or something similar... I know a few and know their reasons for going back to the porty....
