Equipment for Fleets

We currently own a mobile fleet business that does preventative maintenance for customers with fleets of vehicles (10-30). Several of our customers would like us to do basic washes on their vehicles (exterior only). Most vehicles are box trucks. If you are looking at 20 Workhorse (Bread Trucks) trucks what is the general pricing? What is a good machine for the money that will last? What engine size should I look for and psi, etc. Should I invest in a hot water system? Most customers have their own water supply. Thank you in advance for the replies.

Need to Know..

Total of workhorses.

How far inbetween accounts.

Any machine from a company that deals mainly in powerwash supplies will last.

Engine size depends on the speed you need to wash all the workhorses in a set time period.

Hot/cold depends on the amount of grease you will deal with.

The good thing for us is we are already at the locations performing our regular services, so we are not going out of our way to get there. One account has 22 workhorses and a tractor trailer rig. The average amount of vehicles will be around 20 per location. What is a good starting point for price per vehicle? I know I will get a lot of different opinions but what is a better brand of motor/rig that a lot of guys prefer? Thanks again!
