Just picked this up.......
NorthStar Professional Series Pressure Washer — 4000 PSI, 3.5 GPM |Gas/Cold Water | Northern Tool + Equipment (http://www2.northerntool.com/product/200241574_200241574.htm)
I think it maybe a lot for what I do but so what. It was cheap. I don`t have a hose but just ordered one. Has anyone used this model before? I know it`s pressure is adjustable from 100-4000 psi. This should be good then for cars.

That`s a nice upgrade from your Karcher! Were you having problems with your Karcher or just wanted to upgrade?
Wish I knew you needed a hose! I have a brand new hose and wand kit with the nozzle jets even.

My first reaction when I saw 4000psi was to ask what you will be doing with it, offering touchless paint stripping services? ;)
Then I saw "adjustable from 100psi which is something I want, but this model costs way much more than my needs would justify. What other adjustable pressure models you are aware of, if any?

Justin30513, congrats on that pressure washer, it`s one quality unit. The commercial Honda engine combined with the Cat pump adds up to a real winner.
Start far away with your wand and get closer until you get the level of cleaning you want, and you might want to invest in a pair of steel toed boots. I`m serious. Huge pressure like that, combined with a moment of inattention, and you`re into a whole lot of grief, so steel toed boots are your friend.
