Originally, Truck Mount Forum was started
because my son and I were sold a $30k lemon
by a truck mount manufacturer. Nobody, not the
distributor, the manufacturer or even my son and
I could fix it. We were banned from other forums
for mentioning the issue. The downtime and
the expenses to travel to get it repaired nearly
bankrupted us.
There was nobody there to help or care. Finally,
we went to see John the Truckmount Guru (RIP
John you were a great man) and he dissected
it and rebuilt it for us for very little and it’s
ran ever since. But then something happened.
Letters- from all over the country, came pouring
in saying they had similar problems- tales of
faulty equipment, bankruptcy, abuse from those
who held the reigns of this industry. It really got
us thinking: What can we do??
My son has always been gifted with computer

technology. I asked him if he could build a
“better” forum, a place where cleaners could
share ideas at, talk about issues they are
having- a place where we could all just have a
community of support. With all of his effort,
he created TruckMountForums- and it has
developed and grown into what it is today.
We are the largest free cleaning industry “free
speech” forum on the planet. One that has not
been bought and controlled by the big guys.
Having such a thing doesn’t come without a
price though, this is where the 85/15% rule
comes into play that “famous” people run into.
There will be 85% of people who love it, and
then there will be 15% of those who want to tear
it down. NO good deed goes unpunished by bad
people- you could create the cure for cancer and
there would still be that one person who asks you
“why it took so long”. You could be helping feed
poor in Africa and some would say “feed your
