    camera placement

    It is an 8-20mm lens and is about 16 feet away. I thought it would be no problem. I may be able to get a longer lens.

    camera placement

    I just bought a new camera system. One of my goals was to be able to read the 1" high error code on my control box. That way if I have an issue I can see from home whether I need to make the trip to the wash. I bought what I thought was a pretty tight camera to just point at the box. I placed it...

    soft gloss arm issue

    The pressure seems ok. Maybe I just need to get used to the camera on the wall! It's kind of freaking me out.

    soft gloss arm issue

    The rear arms on my soft gloss are hitting really hard when they go back out. I just had a pm done and the form said that he checked it but I'm sure it is hitting too hard. Which valve controls that? What should the pressure be? I have a new camera inside my auto bay that I am pretty sure is...

    Anyone traveled to Panama lately?

    We went to San Pedro on Ambergris Caye. You fly into Belize City and take a puddle jumper over to the island. There is plenty of third world in Belize but not in San Pedro. Lots of really good restuarants and very friendly people who speak English. If you like to snorkle or dive the second...

    Anyone traveled to Panama lately?

    Bill, I haven't been to Panama but did go to Belize last month. If I had enough stuff I would be tempted to sell all of that stuff and move there. We really really liked it.

    loan programs

    We are not having a problem getting a bank interested in doing the 504, there are 3 that want to do it. I just don't like the terms. The ownership of this side will be slightly different from the ownership of the other side so we can't really put them together. The "job creation" portion is not...

    Strongly cosidering a new Autec AES 260. Any thoughts?

    So you would offer a better wash but charge less for it? I would rethink that if I were you.

    loan programs

    I got a note in the mail today telling me that they are lowering my cw loan to 4.15% and it's locked in for 10 years. That's what makes the banks and sba hard to stomach.

    loan programs

    The rates are excellent. SBA will lock in for 20 years but the bank will only lock for 5. This isn't income producing space like a cw, it's office space so we need a 20 year amortization. In the 504 program SBA only takes 40% and the bank 50% so for 15 years we would have half the note at a rate...

    Wanting better mileage SUV/crossover.

    I used to have a Jetta turbo diesel and loved it. It lost a battle with the bumper of a truck or it would probably still be running. I am one of 3 straight guys driving a Passat in Kentucky now. It's a good car but the milage is disappointing. I would highly reccomend a VW if you know of an...

    loan programs

    At my real job we are out of space and are going to buy the rest of the floor. It's going to cost about $500k. I guess that I have been totally spoiled by my loan through Farm Credit. Are there any decent programs out there now? 6 of us are going together to make the purchase. We talked to 1...

    giving up on scrubber

    I spoke to the guy who does my tech work. He is in the process of installing a Softgloss in a wash that he bought. He said that he is not installing the wheel scrubbers. He did indicate that other people's wheel scrubbers helped him pay for his wash....

    giving up on scrubber

    I'm thinking of yanking my wheel scrubbers. I have had nothing but trouble for the past year and they have been turned off about half the time. Somebody has hit 1 of them twice in the past week and I am just worn out with trying to keep the damn things running. Anybody think that is a really...
