I bought a 6HP Campbell Hausfeld with 60 gal tank at Northern for around $400. A few months later, Walmart had the same one about $10 less. You'll need a 220v plug if you go with a large one. Not a big deal if you know how to add breakers to your fuse box.

I'd stay away from the "oil free" compressors. From what I hear, they make quite a bit more noise than an oil filled. Mine has a cast iron sleeve, which should add to the life of it.
