Hey everyone... great forum i have been watching this for a while just never got around to posting, or becoming a member. Well now im here and finally after a few rough years i am getting my detail business up and running.
here is a few pics of my set up. Im using a truck i have and because when i was looking for pics on how to set up a open truck and couldn't find many i figured i would share what i did.
thanks and enjoy!

Looks good, Best wishes on your business. Did you build it so it is easily removed (ie: forklift)?
Where in Md are you located? I grew up in St. Marys county

I am sure you will find a lot of work with the harsh winter that hit there.

No..lol its a 65gal tank.. so i plan on dumping it everytime i use it ..or maybe ill use it all. Cant tell yet...havent done 1 job yet..just set all this up. (keep up i talk in dots....like this..lol)
The set up is all designed to be removed and make it look like its not a detail truck..lol I do use this as my current ride. And having a regular 8-5 job this will just be a side thing or an additional item.

more on this set up
65 gallon tank w/ 3/4 id plug
3/4 ball valve at tank with shut off lever
3/4 y valve..with for 2 separate water hoses
1800 watt generator
gas power 2200 psi p/w
i need a better y valve as mine is too small and when i did a test run it barely was sending enough water to the pressure washer.
then since my bed is open..i have everything locked down so it dont walk away...untill i get a cap or somthing. lol
