Been looking for a decent one for years.

Last week I dropped the coin for a used 2017 STIHL RB 800.

Just fired it up today. I could slice small tree trunks with this thing.

your power washing font looks better then my handwriting! Well done
I use a AR Blue Clean electric power washer, they can be had cheap, under $100 and AR blue clean makes the ones that commercial outfits use. Also they are the model that HF cloned for their electric units.

I love me a gas power washer, but man I've got enough gas engines to choke a horse... so if I can get away with electric, sometimes I will. 
We have a nice gas Honda machine outside....needs a new pump.
Make sure you winterize your power washers!! Can always find them cheap at yard sales......needing pumps,.............because people don't drain the water out before winter :)
oh yeah and STIHL makes the BEST SH*&!!!!! very nice.
Now come over here and we can power wash my whole house!! YEAH!!!!!!!!! it needs it

I spent a few hours this weekend doing the badly neglected concrete. The difference is amazing.

Over 4,000 PSI and 4 gallons a minute. Can't wait to hit the Ranger frame!

4,000 PSI will strip paint. Be careful. My 2800 with the pinpoint tip will strip so-so paint.

Anytime my driveway is that  dark it is covered in an algae where I will spin my tires going up the driveway.  I have to pressure wash about every 18 months.
