My new tow vehicle

[George2615]

Nothing special. It's a class 6 truck which is 19501-25999 so regular class C is fine.

It's considered commercial, though since it's a medium duty truck.

I had the wrong name on the title so they are making me change it because it has to exactly match my driver's license. She could have told me before I wrote it but "she ain't know I was doin Dat".

You may want to check with Georgia DMV. A rollback is considered a tow truck and may require a special license or endorsement.

Very nice. Is it a p-pumped Cummins?

It's a 5.9 Cummins. Slow but reliable.

Only requires a special dot permit if it's for hire use.

Are you an officer? That looks like a Caprice patrol car in the background.

That's a sweet setup. I could see that being handy.

It's way easier than pulling a trailer and maxing out a tow vehicle for sure. I can leave it on the truck with no worry. I can back up with ease. The tractor doesn't have to run. I can carry any car or truck on it. I can haul just about anything on it too.

It needs some hydraulic overhaul with new hoses and stuff but is in very good shape. Cost about what a big gooseneck would but comes with a free motor and winch!

FYI , not sure about the req in your area, but here in Alberta, the hoe bucket must be touching the deck, and Chained down, no straps. Looks like a great setup though, jealous!
