My spelling I'm using the phone and the buttons are to small for old fat fingers |

Steve-- Funny you should mention Miller-Meteor. My dad worked for them in Minneapolis-St. Paul from 1970 until his death in August of '72. I'd go with him in the summer to deliver new hearses all over the midwest. He'd come home twice a month on weekends and there would be a hearse parked in our driveway for a couple of days. Can't say the neighbors were thrilled, LOL. Oh, and there's a Frigidaire connection: He'd often take a hearse to their wash garage to get detailed. They had a beautiful 1958 Frigidaire set to wash and dry towels/rags, etc. Always loved going there!

When there are no more traditional top-loaders left you will be able to name your own price. |

And yet, as a successful businessman you understand taking risks. |

I will not be saving any, as stated in another thread used SQs do not sell for very much and SQ has sold a ton of machines in the last ten years, so there will be plenty available for many years to come.
Quite a few of the SQ TL washers we have sold have been already sent on to another home when the orignal [ usually older ] owner sells the house and the new home buyer does not like the crude TL [ energy wasting ] washer and replaces it.
I have been saying for years here on AW that any of you guys and gals that want a traditional TL washer should grab a higher end WP built DD washer built from approximately 1985-2000, these were the best all around TL washers the world has ever seen, great performance ,durable and easy to repair.
Many of the over 800 SQ TL washers we have sold over the last ten years have replaced a WP DD washer built in this time period and it always makes me sad to haul away the DD washer and leave behind a machine that does not perform as well as the DD washer.
