I need to buy a pressure washer. Any recommendations out there? I have no aspirations to start a pressure washing business, so I don't need a commercial model.

If you live around Charlotte, try:

1) Harbor Freight on Independence. Cheap China tools (say that 10 times fast).

2) Next, Northern (formerly Norther

nn Hydraulic.) They are all over. Concord, East Idpendence, South Blvd.

Best prices around on tools.

Past that Lowes or Home Depot.

Enema kit

I don't want to know what you do with your sphincter, that you have reached a point where pressure washers and enema kits are the same.

If you live around Charlotte, try:

1) Harbor Freight on Independence. Cheap China tools (say that 10 times fast).

2) Next, Northern (formerly Norther

nn Hydraulic.) They are all over. Concord, East Idpendence, South Blvd.

I live in Charleston and we have Northern tool and Harbor Freight. I'll check them out.

Regarding Harbor Freight - if you get Car Craft or Hot Rod Magazine, they usually have a 20% off coupon in it. If you decide on a model from there, go to a magazine store and spend a few bucks on the magazine to save some extra cash - look inside the magazine first to make sure it's there though and that you can use it on what you're going to purchase.

Check the rental price and compare it to buying your own. I've heard (though i haven't looked into myself) that renting one from your local hardware stores ONE TIME is as expensive as buying one.

We are getting ready to split one with my dad. I've read up on them. Get one with a psi between 2200-3000 (honestly 3000 is higher than you likely need) We are buying one for $400 (so we are paying $200 and my dad is paying $200).

I've seen a Honda pressure washer for $250 with 2200 psi. (that is probably all you would need, it should clean everything including concrete)

I'm splitting the cost with my father-in-law in exchange for me going over there and pressure washing his ****ing two story house.

I wouldn't waste time with electric. Seems counterintuitive and wife bought one from Harbor Freight. Last two times. Won't work now.

Borrowing my father's Honda pressure washer. Beat to death...and running strong. Bit more, but good.

Then you don't want a pressure washer. Effective pressure is lost after 2-3 feet, so a water hose would do just as well. Plus, siding on houses is not installed to prevent water from coming in from below, so you could be setting up for a lot of troubles.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By NCBlu · Posted

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
