A truck like this would most likely pay for itself in reduced labor costs and by not having to pay for contractors. I have used one and I know they do much more than clean out sewer lines.

Well, M in Bratt, because ECUAs rates are about double what we pay here in Century. So no, thank you….

If they buy this thing, the money lenders will again win, and the citizens will lose. Why doesn’t the town of century just turn the water and sewer dept’s over to the ECUA, that way they don’t have to raise rates, or buy a bunch of expensive equipment, or spend a bunch of money they don’t have on improvements.

It’s important to have a quarter million dollar piece of equipment while your residents steal your water, that is, whatever water is not percolating up through the road.

Right on with the comments. To purchase one would be fiscally irresponsible. If need be, contract the work out.

Hopefully Hawkins just used the demo to clean out an area, take a look at the process

I mean, I have test driven a car with no intention of buying it before.

Handy piece of equipment for sewer and stormwater system maintenance.
Closer to $450,000 new.

I hope you know there are companies that can come do that for you. A quarter of a million dollar vehicle needs to be used at least daily to pay for its self.
