That's fantastic! I'm in the process of buying a Tennant T12 for work right now. I tend to buy a Condor or Tennant machine on alternating years. Scrubber one year, sweeper the next. Considering these things have about a 3-5 year life-cycle and what I see done to ours on a regular basis; I imagine you stay pretty busy and have a lucrative business there. How large of a territory do you cover?

Funny note: dad gave the old white Ford to my struggling brother. He and the dog often spent the night in it.

My youngest son's new gf, her uncle donated an F350, white, for her to use as a daily.

Now that I've had a morning full of hydration - I can't tell if it's just placebo effect, but the water does taste "fresher". Normally when I get water from the fridge it has a weird aftertaste, and it seems like drinking from this bottle after purification that the water tastes better.

Great machine. So up until July we covered DC-Maine, we got purchased by a bigger company the end of July and are now national. Depending on where you are "on Earth" either my team or our parent company may be able to help.

If nothing else, I'd be happy to price-check it for you. You should be getting more than 3-5 out of a T-12 or a condor (we just replaced our condor in our own warehouse after 12 years with an SC6500 due to supply chain delays). We tell people the "average" life cycle is 7-10 years, but with a proper PM plan (we're a service company too) 10-12 isn't unusual. at at that point they're probably still in decent shape, but like a car the cost to maintain becomes such that a good business decision is to replace or make it your "backup" machine makes more sense

Nice, been researching fire pits myself. Can't decide if I want to buy a metal one or build one from stone/blocks.

I am actually going in the opposite direction, slowly removing all the supplements I take. I no longer take a multi-vitamin, Vitamin C, Fish Oil, etc. I am continuing my daily Osteo-BiFlex for my achy knees so I can stay on the tennis court, but that's it. I did recently start Collagen Peptides Powder with Hyaluronic Aciddaily. I've been on it for a few weeks and have not noticed any changes.

This is good stuff to keep joints and skin supple, I don't really need it though I go cycling regularly.

What's your reasoning for stopping the supplements?

Does your refrigerator have a filter on its water line or internally that hasn't been changed recently?????
