very pretty,
looks to have been very well cared for.
I always thought the Triple Crowns were the prettiest filter-queen

Hey Brad, you got an awesome deal on the FQ and it's gorgeous! What did the owner trade it in for? The newer FQ's are lackluster in appearance compared to yours, they just don't have the bling anymore. Enjoy!

I got the FQ locally. I t was listed in the local paper. I made a phone call, then went to view the vacuum. I paid the man cash and thanked him. His wife loooked at me and said "That FQ works better than my built in vacuum". I just looked at her and smiled. It certainly was very well taken care of. The only thing it was being used for at the time was vacuuming out thier car.

I just recently purchased a new 2009 FQ. At first I was just oK with the colour scheme but now I really like it. There are some things I like better than the older FQs and some things I don't
Better:
- quick connect host and wands
- floor brush
- power nozzle cleaning ability
- filtration
- on/off switch for power nozzle

Worse:
- rocker type on/off switch instead of the press down button
- bulkiness of the hose handle when doing above the floro cleaning, including the upholstery nozzle
