I finally got my first bucket truck!! Went to dallas thursday and came back with a 99 c7500, 502 gas, pony motor, xt55, and a w/c 17 chipper. Its an asplundh truck but it only had 69000 miles and it runs and works great. I read all the manuals left in the truck and the same guy has been opperating it and he took real good care of it. Been working it since friday and damn i love it!! And the chipper just eats anything u can throw at it!! So now i guess i will quit showing yall pics of trucks and asking yall what yall think!
 
Where are the pics?

Congratulations on your first bucket truck! If it hasn't been inspected by a reputable aerial company, it's a good idea to have it looked over. Work safe.

Congrats. Glad you got something that actually works. Whatever happened with your other little mix-up?
 
Congrats on the new truck!!! It sounds like its the same truck I have in the pic here. Like previously stated have it inspected and certified for a piece of mind and also to cover your a$$ if there is a mis-hap. Good luck with it.

I finally got my money back! BUT IT WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED if yall wouldnt have stepped up for me! Thanks to everybody that helped, I owe some steak dinners!

As for pics.. i got to figure out how to get pics off of my camera.

And ive been flying it, without a certfied tech looking it over. i know i know please dont give me hell but there is no one around here. and the xt 55 is pretty much straight forward on what to look for as damage.
