Not only is this one a good looking rig, it is set up exceptionally well. The cab style is always a winner look. From what I could gather, the front counter weight solid bean axle on leaf springs, is the only way to go, and some less experienced operators, would question why a smaller rig would ever need rear spades/outriggers, well, to elevate the money making potential of this costly unit, having those additional tools, built into the truck build package, is a really nice touch. That additional cost to have spades, would allow me to pay for those with in about 3 to 5 heavier winter jobs, and in no time at all, those tools have paid for themselves, so worth having. I could make so much money with this rig, set up just as this unit is, and still be able to bill out the same rates, as I would for my larger recovery units, while not having the costly wear and tear my larger units never seem to fail in slowly adding up, just waiting to show their ugly faces in down time in repairs and replacement worn out parts, as they do, and I take great care of my stuff, as that is part of my safety measures. Thanks for showing this video.

Wow, that’s incredible!

Nice set up

[@juliogonzo2718]

I like how it's kinda set up like a heavy with all that storage. We have a reka flatbed at my work and it seems well built. The mini lightbars they put on it are poor though. $50 a side more they could have put federal signal ones that are actually bright. Reka if you are reading this please don't put crap unibond bars on a $250k truck. Our lives depend on emergency lighting. Other than that it's an awsome truck so far. I like how the wiring has junction boxes. We have an NRC and fixing wiring is a pain because they just have splices.
