Industrial Karcher. Goes up to 2500 psi, diesel water heating electric pump. Cold, hot, steam clean. For vehicle washing you have to go a bit easy, about 60C and 1000 psi. Parts being cleaned for painting you can strip a lot of the paint and rust with the washer! Useful for washing livestock trailers anorl!

Three and a bit years, I think. Doubt if it gets as much use as in a garage environment, though. Mostly just trailer washing, and washing off machinery before servicing or repair.
I dont use the chemicals, usually the hot wash is adequate, if it is very bad I degrease with a stiff brush first. Mine is converted to use the chemical tanks to carry extra water, cos our pressure is lousy on well water.
Others have said that Ehrle are good, doubt if they are that cheap either, though!

I think this is the best plan, 1350BHP V12 Cummins powered 7000psi out of a 4" pipe
Found it while touring Peterbilt dealers in Pennsylvania
