I have 2 small wreckers. The smaller one is on a 3/4 ton Chevy with singles, 6 cylinder gas & 4 speed. It is comfortable with most small time towing, but towing anything bigger than a 1/2 ton pickup or a full size car is not so comfy.



And it don't take much to fab up a rack to go on the dollies to accomodate cars with missing wheels.

Based on the picture, I would agree that $1500 is a bit steep for that unit.
