RE: Cimex versus challenger - Lounge Lizards - 10-23-2014
I absolutely endorse what Rick has said about the use of ramps.
Seeing as I turn 70 in about 5 months time, I know that I would never have been able to keep on getting my Cimex's in & out of my van without the ramps.
The Cimex & ramps have kept me going much longer than I thought I would be able to.
Come December, for about six weeks, I'll be doing anywhere between 8 -14 hour days, 6 & sometimes 7 days a week.
Sure, my knees will be sore each day, but I do have a remedy to fix that.
Get to know your body & it's limitations.
Treat it like ramps, know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em.
If you want to play tough &/or stupid, disregard what I have just said.
Take care out there.

If they ever build a Hall of Fame for CC'ers, Shorty should be the first inductee! Still pulling long hours at 70. Amazing!

I agree - Shorty is one of a kind!

Nah, just an average guy.
Ray (Rambo) Moody would win that hands down.
Ray was 77 when he finally laid his tool down.
One person that I would dearly love to meet ( if I can make to Clearwater in April ).
But thanks anyway.

Ive never used a challenger but im doing 6000 square ft of cgd at my church tomorrow, 175 with a solution tank should take about 6 hours , I do have helper that will be pre vacuuming in front of me and having chemical ready when i need it, will anyone at your church lend you a hand maybe spraying down chemical in front of you should make life easier.

That's about 557 M2
On average that would take me less than 4 hours on my own with my Cimex.
Time is money.
Buy a Cimex.
