yea I worded that title line kind of funky didn't I ?

I've been looking at shop vacs here online and from what I see theres not much difference.

6.5 hp motor and hold anywhere from 15-18 gallons. But I'm wanting to use this for cars mostly.

shop vac
craftsman
afew other brands.

don't think I need to spend the extra (approx) $50.00 for the stainless steel canister.

Are they pretty much all the same??

Why order a shop vac online? Go to Walmart and pick one up cheap.

Dyson DC07 All Floors - that english dude knows what he's talking about. This is the best vacuum I've ever used. never loses suction, easy dispenser, telescoping handle, cleanable filter (dont have to buy one)

http://www.dyson.com/range/range_ove...sinavtype=menu

I found mine on craigslist...new but from a sales guy who sold all kinds of vacuum. It was a lot cheaper than online

oh and when I was in college, I spent a few weeks selling the Tristar vacuum (competitor to Kirby, Hoover, etc)
