[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 1651273, member: 14646"] Keep in mind that the tank size is not what give you CFM and can power the tools that consume lots of air. CFM comes from the pump. Most low priced 60 and 80 gal compressors have low to mid teens CFM. Once you start getting up in to the $1500-$2500 range the CFM goes up into the 20's. Not to mention most construction service and oiler trucks have IC engines powering their compressors and generally their thanks are approx 30 gallons. I would look at CFM then hp of motor and tank size last. [/QUOTE]
