It’s going to be a very region specific issue. Where I am, I would really struggle with an 8 gpm on a 65 gal tank. I would plan on dual feeding the tank at every house that’s on a well, with 3/4” hose and a 1” manifold reel.
The more logical solution for me would to just use the 8 gpm while working from municipal water supplies, and the 5.5 when on wells. As it is, there’ve been a couple houses where I had to dual-feed to keep my 5.5 fed.
True, work out in the sticks and water supply is iffy. I had a house with one spigot and it only put out 2gpm.
Fortunately most I’ve hooked up to here meet or exceed my 5.5 use.
A 2 hour job last week took me 4 because the water pressure was so bad. Wouldn’t even come close to keeping up with a 5.5. Nothing worse that sitting around waiting
This is why a always bring the first 100
I just don’t get all that. Because most hose lines are 1/2 feeds
How many gallons y’all use on a typical 2000 SQ ’ home ?
I haven’t had a meter on my rig since I was using the trailer, but if memory serves, most houses took between 400-600 gallons
I run a 50 gallon buffer mainly for the bypass but it has come in handy on some low-flow houses. I had a new construction house that couldn’t keep up 
I fail to see why you can’t do this at a Waffle House. Have you ever been to a Waffle House in North Dallas at 1am? They don’t give a single damn what you do as long as you’re not robbing the place.
I probably use 200-300 gallons maybe
Eating at waffle house at 1am made me regret mightly only have 1 spare magazine for my carry piece.
Back in the day when I drove a wrecker I would forward the phone from the truck to the pay phone in waffle House and would hang out there at night
What’s a pay phone?
Depending on where you live, forget the pressure washing and for 4K can get you a 6*10 trailer, couple of ladders and set up a nice roof cleaning system. In 6 months you’ll have your 4k back and enough money to go buy whatever pw you want, if you’re in a good market.
Young whippersnapper. It was a big deal when a call jumped from a dime to a quarter.
I’m from 78’ so I only made quarter calls. I can still hear her voice like it was yesterday “Please deposit 25 cents”
I remember them from when I was a kid.
We still had them outside our barracks at Ft Hood, in 02. I didn’t have a cell phone so it was how I talked to my parents and girlfriend back in Kentucky. You learned to say a lot in a little time because those calls could get expensive!
