Were no pre trips done since it was bought? No looking the truck over during maintenance?

Yea, I hate being on a scene/recovery and look like an idiot trying to pull cable. The one downside to the curved flood like on the back, is at night, it shadows the winch drums so you cant see them lol

Bridges all along the procession route had tow trucks, fire and ems

We use carpet shield as a crash wrap. Sucks when you drop in stone, grass etc, because everything sticks to it, but works great.

The accident happened last July, but I recent found a usb with a ton of old tow pics. I wasn't on scene for this one, but I towed it to copart. The rear axle was knocked loose and the bed still had a partial load of concrete, primarily on the driver side.

I absolutely hate moving tool boxes lol. One thing i always do it put a couple small straps over/around the boxes to ensure that the drawers don't pop open, even when they're locked.

How'd the truck handle that international? If you were to compare it to picking it from the axle with your 12ton 650, how would you rate it?

This is the only picture i have of it on my computer. This picture has the upper light bar installed but not the ones under the tunnel boxes.

We got this truck at the end of last year. Our last wrecker had 2 tunnel boxes and this one only has 1, so we were a little short on storage. We added 3 additional boxes. My boss has also let me add stuff to make things more efficient. Simple stuff first, 2 buckets for floor dry/debris 2 Boxes have been placed on each side of the bed, which did make it difficult to watch the winches. So mirrors were added to aid with that. Again, the boxes make backing up to a car difficult to see it. All of our trucks have on board dvr, with 4 cameras. I added a monitor to be able to see. This truck has a compressor and tank, but no gauge, or air hook ups. We do alot of ppi's, and have to call another company to remove any trailers with air. I added an air hook up so we can move empty trailers, or equipment trailers. Also added a psi gauge, I ended up changing the fitting on the back of the gauge so it would fit though. Now my personal favorite addition. The flood lights in the back were......lacking. I had a 42" curved light bar at home that I wasn't using and added to the truck. I also got some smaller led spot/flood lights to add under the tunnel box to aid with nighttime reversing. Before After (That is also just the upper lights. Lowers were not turned on) Lower lights

Tow light was on, with the owner also following

Had a call to take a tow dolly to a local trailer repair facility, calls were stacking up and I offered to get it with a wrecker so a rollback wouldn't be tied up.
