Thanks. I"ve lost count of the number or times I"ll roll up to a new customers place and get told that they never expected someone with a truck "that big" to show up to work on their little machine. Dad and I set it up specifically to work on the older Northwest and Bucyrus Erie cranes we used to do a lot of work on. I do wish I had a bigger crane sometimes but the largest side mount available at the time was the 11,000 lb (at 6 feet) model we went with. Nowdays they make a 14,000 lb model, but from what I"m told it"s not really any stronger than mine because the 14,000 lbs is rated at 3 feet. Thing is it"s almost impossible to find anything that heavy to pick that can be picked at 3 feet. At the time mine was the only one that we could get to pick the main drum shaft out of a 9570 Northwest crane (and that"s with the rear bumper right against the track frame), but it"s something we needed to handle a lot so we went with what worked.
There are times I"d like to have just a little more storage room for common parts, but beyond that I couldn"t be any happier with it now than I was when I first got it....and stepped up from an old C30 Chevrolet. I still don"t know how I got as much stuff on that little truck as I did because I didn"t feel like I added much when I moved stuff from one to another and filled this one up....LOL
