No, this is a "true" 5hp (23 amp running) 2-stage compressor rated at 17CFM @ 175psi. Price of the 60 gallon runs $1300 (little less if you catch a sale). $150 isn't huge in comparison but why spend it if I don't need it.
Since most of my air tools probably can't outrun the pump I'm not sure the 80 gallon tank is buying me anything.
I tried those HF tank drains and they're not really worth it. Tried two different units on my dad's compressor and both would leak by or not cycle properly.
