I have wondered what ever happened to this truck. It disappeared from Corunna, IN a while back, I was afraid it had been cut. Cannot remember the guy's name who owned it but he is a stick hauler.

Well I was gonna paste the article that I read about this last week but for some reason I can't paste anything to this thread. The article was from a local TV station and stated that she fired all 6 rounds, 5 hit the perp and he had 4 exit wounds with punctured lungs, a punctured liver & a punctured stomach and was on a vent.

I have these and maybe a few others. Sold a couple on ebay so far but I would love to put a value on them before blindly selling them.

Is that Rick's Truck Service in Converse, IN?

Merry Christmas everyone!

It's a fun place to visit. Mike & family are wonderful people. (don't tell him I said that though...)

Can anyone guess this place?

Just a thought, it's been a few years since I was working in the flatbed world but rates out of CO into the Great Lakes region were fairly low but from the 'Lakes to the east coast they were high. If you could get it moved commercially to one of us in the Great Lakes/Midwest area then find a "friend" to get it the rest of the way might be cheaper.

you musta just missed me....

with a torch and a sawz-all you can make anything fit any place.

Shoulda fired up "Thumper" and unloaded 'em with him!

Mike, You have a hood for it!

We had an MH613 Freedom Edition at Parrish Leasing on Ft Wayne. Roughly 11 years ago (give or take) the truck was sold to a small carrier out of Lima, OH. I don't know what became of it from that point and I never thought to take any pictures of it. Should have as it was the only non-white (in color) truck in the fleet at the time.

Any recovery truck requires pictures as well! Welcome aboard!

Congratulations Trent! You and Sarah dated longer than my marriage lasted.... Take good care of each other.

Judging from the most recent pic's that I seen of Mikey's truck, a few less ponies might be a good idea for a while....

Happy Thanksgiving!

The 1st truck is the '95 CH613 that I use to drive with a Century 5030 rear end. The 2nd truck is a CL713 with a B&B 80+ ton rotator that belongs to Campbell's out of Ligonier, IN The 3rd & 4th are trucks that belong to WAFFCO Towing out of Lake Station, IN.

wow...

We sell Grand Rock at our KW dealership.

Some more of Tillman...

The Mack is the truck I use to drive. It has a Century 5030 backend that is a 25 ton unit (equal to a Holmes 750) and a 30K under-reach. Hardly overkill when you consider I could do everything that I needed to do with just that one truck. My little International S Series had a DT466 with a 5speed/2speed rearend and a Century 20 ton with a 12K under-reach and I did an empty Mack CL quad-axle dump with it one time and it was all it wanted to do. When you try to do too much without enough truck equipment gets damaged & people get hurt and sometimes die.... Note: One thing I would not do with that Mack was Volvo WG refuse trucks with the front mounted pump. It would require me to tow with my under-reach extened all the way out and that was too much weight on a fully extended stick to tow safely.

Does this make you guys feel a bit better?

As for Solo clutches. Nearly everyone in our area (N.E. Indiana, N.W. Ohio & Southern Michigan) has gone away from the solo and gone to the easy pedal. The solo's are prone to freezing up and not adjusting as they are suppose to leading to early failure. We don't even stock solo's anymore.
