Thats a hell of a list you got there and a great starting out budget!
Only things id add would be as followed
2 100ft of pressure hose
1 50ft section for those areas where 200ft wont cover it.
Stainless quick connects for all ends.
Stainless Mosaic swivel for your accessories.
Have seen some local guys here running that rig. I always get a chuckle out of the wasted money. You can build alot nicer setuo with that money. Pressurewashingproducts.com has 8gpm units for sell. Tote,plumbing and accessories you can build a nice rig to get you going with trailer included for under $9000 you can also go cheaper like me if you lack funds and go with a 4gpm 4k psi for half the price and just keep it as a backup for when you get your 8gpm.
4/4 has got me through thus year but next year im going after alot more work and need a 8 and a bigger daul axle trailer. Im selling my trailer in the next couoke of months if you are close by its a 5x10 trailer with hose reel racks and ladder rack. Tail gate has been removed and a 4×4 bar welded in place even with the side rails. Under a year old.
Thanks appreciate the feed back, 10x5 is to big for my liking or storage restraints, I don’t think 8k was bad with all the accessories and trailer. I’ve priced a GX690 8gmp online 3.5 to 4 grand for just a motor and pump. This rig with a hot wash setup, wand, reels and hoses and buffer tank and storage, what makes this a bad deal? I have checked other units same motor with an 8gpm, no hot water or storage running 5 to 9 k
