Roll Off Truck

Thats a real nice truck. I took a look at the Hino site and from what I could find it didn't look like they had anything available over 33,000lb (unless I missed something). From a payload standpoint I think I am going to try to find something around the 60,000lb gvw, (40 rears, and 20 front) or somewhere close. Here in Montana we have to cover a lot of milege inbetween projects/jobs so being able to carry as much as possible in one trip is pretty important. It seems like everything I am interested in always has a couple extra zero's on the price tag! :jawdrop:


A friend of mine has an 88 or 89 model Gold Dog Mack with a Hyd Tarp For Sale. I think it has 44,000 or 46,000 pound rears. I think he would take around $12,500.00 for it. Not a lot of Zeros though.:)
 
Thanks for the info. rngrchad, I agree on all accounts. Everything I have researched and from what I have seen around here a hook is the way to go. Thanks for the heads up on the Hino style trucks. I've never even heard of them, and it seems all I ever do at night is look on the internet trying to find a system and truck that would suit me. I'll definately check them out!

thansen, you might contact disposal companies or the like in your area, or someone like Evergreen Disposal up here... See if they're selling off some of their hook setups.

The State Auction in Helena might be an option too... I believe it's coming up this spring?
 
I bought two new KW's, T-800's '06 and '07 both 22k fronts, 46k rears, 15speeds OD, both have 475hp cummings ISX engines

It was 10 outside and I forgot to plug the truck in. It hasn't been used in 4 days and fired right up.

I know my kitty cat wouldn't start at that temp without some help.

Cummings are cert. to meet 2010 standards, Cat can't do it as of meeting 06 standards. They have been paying the dirty engine tax and gave up.

Another motor I have and am happy with is the Freightliner/mercedes/detroit
