1998 Dodge cheap on fuel with H2O cell on.
12X8 tandem utility trailer, and a car dolley.

1952 F-600 with an all steel, Herculese dump bed. I figure when the truck dies, I'll just turn it in with my next load of scrap and triple what I have in it!

I have Studebaker, pickup bed trailer that was made to haul seed wheat. It has high, sloping sides on it. Not the easiest to unload but it can haul a big load!

Very cool...except the combo kind of reminds me of the Packers.

Oh man....I never thought of that....time to get out the rattle cans!!!! Or, I guess if I ever need to sell it all, I'll start with a posting on the Green Bay, Wi. craigslist!

There you go...Game Day Limo!

1997 GMC Sonoma 2.2L 5 speed. she has seen better days

My 1998 F250

First load of scrap (98% came from clean out of parents basement)

http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p.../Photo0243.jpg

95 dodge ram 2500 5 spd. 8/15 hwy mileage per gallon. 360 magnum. Tows my boat sometimes. craigs list special.Tim http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...d/HPIM1942.jpg

Man wavecrazed that is a sharp looking trailer, I want one.

1992 Dodge Dakota 4x4 v8 Magnum, True Duals.
1981 Volvo 240 5 speed (for small loads to save gas)
6x10 dual axle trailer
5x6 utility trailer (for going around neighborhoods on trash day)
3x8 utility trailer (to pull behind the volvo)

1986 Chevy 3/4 ton 4X4, 350 cu. in., 3 speed with bull low. Low rumbling dual exhaust sometimes makes me feel I'm driving down Thunder Road . Parts are plentiful and reasonably priced. My favourite truck after driving for 46 years. Reliable, capable in the mud and snow, rides real smooth on the highway with a good load on and happily tows a heavy trailer. "Like A Rock"

Car dolly brand unknown paid $250 craigslist

Scrapping cars paid for all of that stuff when I started out I had a 88 chevy suburban 454 fuel injected that got 8 mpg and a crappy 15' flatbed race car trailer with no winch, come along and a chain all day long, haha. Just had to work hard and wait for the right deals to fall into my lap, the only way I could afford nice work stuff. I also have a 69 chevy tow truck with the holmes 440 wrecker bed/sling but not sure if I'm going to ever use it until I get a buddy to weld a wheel lift on.

Subtracted the GMC cargo van and added a 1993 Dodge Ram 3/4 ton ext cab longbed with 318 magnum. Clean grandpa truck.

A beat up 01 F150 7700pkg. I don't have to worry about dents (although I'll blame ya if you're around) :) I'm a part timer, my reg job doesn't allow for the time to go all out. Although, my uncle in law (guess that's how you'd put it) has a '11 Ram 3500 Cummins duelly, 5th wheel, car trailor and a 98 Ram Cummins duelly as well, along with every tool under the sun.....He gets scrap jobs like no one! But, he's been in the biz for a long, long time. At one time he used to clear 6 figures. Then again, I guess it's not really about a truck.....heck, I've seen many a time some guy in front of me with a hatchback or crap*** sedan at the yard who has more radiators than he has teeth and chewing on their lip like it's $30 ribs. To each their own.

1994 dodge 2500 5.9 cummins 5 speed
2002 dodge 2500 5.9 cummins auto
various trailers, and winchs
and one of the tow bars you can get a uhaul we used to tow a 2 1/2 ton ( wouldnt fit on the car hauler)
plus my partner has a 77 ford 3/4ton with 460 but we rarely drive it for scrapping because of fuel

im currently towing with a 2011 e250 yes a van with a 18 foot flat bed trailer

im looking into rebuilding my grandfathers old wrecker its a 1980 3 ton chev with jer dan tow gear and wheel lift but i plan on taking the boom off and just use it to tow the trailer . less headaches and if i leave the wheel lift on when the cars in awkward place i can drop the trailer. pull the car out ,then hook up and load car on trailer. also picked up a 2003 chev 2500 will with a 6 liter so ill be swapping in the motor for better fuel milage then the 454

01 Dodge 1500 4X4 with air shocks. only load I've put on it so far that gave me any trouble was a bed full of bricks stacked up even with the bed rails, she swayed a bit coming down the highway, the engine didn't know it was back there, but the shocks sure did.

2010 Tacoma ( The go getter ) also my everyday vehicle
1983 Chevy C-10 3/4 Ton 4x4 with home made goatbox.( The Bringer iner ) Over 1,081,000 miles on it. Love it :)
