Unless all you are going to do is small monument signs and raceways on strip malls the 35' is way too small. Yes, 35' is enough height but the lack of side reach is what is going to hold you back. We looked into these years back and decided to start off with an old 65' skyhook jr- you can probably pick up a complete skyhook on a gas truck for what most guys want for an old trailer mount 35 mighty. In my opinion, buy a 55' or 65' round tube, load it up with all the hardware, welder and torches and you will never look back.

Trailer mounted is awesome..... even if you eventually get a 65' using the trailer mounted mighty lift can give you quite an edge with installations. truck mounted might limit you but it's a good start. 35' just isn't that much reach.
