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.

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

2) Next, Northern (formerly Norther

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.

      Trade Deadline Talk

      By frankw · Posted

      You guys are just going to have to accept the fact that Dan Morgan is a mid GM best case scenario currently. I used to have people get very belligerent over defending Scott Fitterer too. And that's not hyperbole. People used to go to bat for that guy like he was blood related. We have a truckload invested in the OL and what do we have to show for it? The whole unit is already banged up including one of our big signings. Even without all that the group has largely take a step back from last year in pass protection. Then you get to the QB room and there's only two conclusions you can make about Dan Morgan. Either he deliberately ignored it two years in a row on his own accord or he took orders from Tepper to do so. Either scenario says he's not fit to be an NFL GM.

      Is Canales digging his own grave?

      By strato · Posted

      Frank, ceding control of the defense in no way verifies that Tepper told Canales to bench Young.    It certainly buttresses the idea that Canales would need permission to bench him but that is as far as you can take it.    After that it is pure speculation and it doesn’t make sense.

      Uhh, okay yes that happened. I didn’t like the pick either I am a 3rd or later RB guy. Always. Actually hated the CMC pick too. Hated the Stewart pick.  No one wants to talk about trading the #39 in that draft and what he did with that.  Got #52, #155, and the Rams 2025 2nd to boot.   The 52 and 155 plus our 142 5th rounder to go up for a Brooks Everyone wants to forget about the 2025 2nd for that Rams trade  which was used to move up for Scourton.  That Rams trade down was a great deal for us.
