A medium priced QUIET shop wet/dry vac

Hello,
Two questions
1. Is there a shop vac that is quiet (without ear plugs) in a 5 gal range?
2 Is there a shop vac that doubles as a blower and can run off a power-
inverter from a truck?
Thanks for any insight! JP

sobriety is the root cause of dementia.
Check out the Ridgid's. I have their model with the motor that comes off. It really sucks and blows! The quiet part comes with the add-on muffler. Now, whether it's quiet enough for you to use without ear plugs is up to you. I generally use plugs with just about all my power tools - too much loud rock n'roll in my youth :-)
