I currently manage 6 locations with self serves and automatics. We are looking to upgrade one site with new equipment. We currently have D&S 5000's and need something better to compete in our area. We are limited with clearence of just over 10ft. Any ideas out there or recommendations would be appreciated

I was impressed with one machine and company for IBA's at the ICA show: Washworld. It a Laser 4000 knock off for sure. Looked good, ran fast, etc. The machine has a nice low price and has a great, clean look. Virtual treadle, spot free rinse, tri-foam. You can customize the gantry with your own graphics.

WASHWORLD! Looks like all the cleaning power of the big boys' machines at about half the price.

I think most campanies can get an automatic in the dimensions you listed. CHeck for the strongest distributor in your area.

Your not going to get a Wash World or PDQ in a 10 foot bay. You need at least 12' of overhead space. The machine will clear a 7' vehicle.

The Magic Wand E-Series will fit. It all comes down to your distributor.

The Ryko Monarch2 will fit in a 10' 2" bay and will wash an 84" vehicle.
