he Billy Goat is a model MV650SPH, Honda engine, self propel.  They're about $2,000.  Its their top of the line debris vacs, it will shred just about anything that goes through it, pop cans, car parts, glass, small dogs, etc. lol   I think in one of the mfg's videos they mentioned something about sucking up a groundhog or something like that.  They make a large hose attachment that I'd like to get for this. 

Its great for crash scenes that are a complete mess, or especially when there is debris and glass in someone's lawn after a car slams a tree or pole, etc.  This vac usually impresses whomever is around when we bring it out, since it is so large and powerful.  Every crash response unit should have one.  We also have a couple leaf blowers on board as well.  Using lawn equipment on crash scenes pays well, sometimes better than the tow itself.
