will say this though, before jumping on the large size vac bandwagon....ask yourself if you need something this big. most people would actually find a smaller 4 gallon more useful if all you're doing is using this for your car, or cleaning up dust size debris, shavings, wood dust etc.
the larger vacs are good for larger debris, or if you are frequently filling it with large amounts of water. note that even with this thing 2/3 filled with liquid, it would be EXTREMELY heavy to move and debatable if the casters could even hold the weight if they encounter something on the floor and puts pressure on the bearings

It's an overkill design, that is built for the Tim Allen types who typically think more/bigger is always better -- I admit I fell for it too.
It's not better. Buy a smaller one.
Dewalt has a line that is much quieter, so rather than this one, I just picked one of those up today. Spent $20 more ($89) but I think it's a better value. Not as large as this one, as it's 9 gallons, but to be honest, I have no need for something larger than 9 gallons. Attaching it to my table saw, etc. 9 gallons is enough.

It's so much better as a shop vac, sucking up stray cutoffs, shavings, clippings, stray screws and nails, etc.
The DeWalt you linked is a damned fine utility vacuum, and I have one like that, too. But the big Ridgid is a great buy at $59.99 and having both is so much better than one or the other.
