    I’m surprised you aren’t making a recovery camper out of it, a support vehicle for the overnight recovery’s or long jobs. Hard to beat hot coffee and a warm bed on a long cold recovery job that’s a ways away from home. Also doubles as an unstoppable RV.

      SMA put together a cool sprinter van for the Pikes Peak electric unlimited superbike record attemp, 2013? three PV arrays the shape of the top of the van slide out to 3X the van square foot area. Something like that could be done with a recovery expedition truck with awnings and pop outs not hard to put more than a half acre under shade, inside a windproof air conditioned enclosure. had a job making inflateable buildings that pack down to 3' x 4'' x 5' times two containers, and inflate into an aircraft hangar with 80' clear span, built with two guys in about 4 hours. Hunter Defense. bought the company.

      No unwanted chemicals gassing off, I wanna puke walking past all the detergents in the stores. Alan could give Sunlight a try. Sunlight bar soap gently cleanses without drying out your skin. Sunlight bar soap is made with 100% vegetable oils and natural fragrances that is gentle on your skin. It cleanses thoroughly, leaving your skin feeling soft and smooth. Was introduced to this bar soap by a 6 foot 6 Polish miner back in 1970s when I worked as a miner in Wawa, Ontario, dam good soap, don't need no shampoo. Handwashed heavy socks to hang up to dry in the dry room with work clothes. Nice clean socks to start each shift!

    You need to turn the mixer drum (once you get the concrete out of it) into the capsule of a rocket. There is a former NASA Saturn 1B rocket on the Alabama-Tennesse state line they want to get rid of.
    The salvage possibilities if you can reach orbit are literally out of this world.

      @@dannyalvarez4259 He specified this in a video. Largest Off-Road Wrecker isnt quite the right term. He even had an example in the video of a bigger wrecker, but he defined his as the biggest functional tow truck (boom, winches, etc) that is a Rock Crawler/Buggy trail capable rig. Sure there are plenty of trucks that are way bigger, and can haul way more, but his will be able to get down those super technical rock trails where people with hardcore equipment go. As Ive said before, the problem with having a super capable rig, is when you get stuck, nobody can come get you. Thats essentially what he is building his wrecker for. He can go get the extreme rigs stuck and broken down difficult trails that nothing else can get through.
      Essentially, the Largest Off-Road Wrecker isnt the right term, a more accurate way would be something like the "Worlds Most Extreme Off-Road Wrecker".

    I was wounded in the Vietnam War...After I got back from Vietnam in 1970, they re-trained me as a supply technician, which included "Property Books" (Inventory control) One of my jobs was to handle "Turn ins" of Army equipment to be sold at auction. ALL military vehicles have a record book of maintenance/service history. All you have to do is ask for a look at it when you go to auction... in 1975 I went to one such auction as the maintenance division was turning in their parts truck as it was pass it's age (use by date) . A 1968 Chevy "Side Step" pick up...3 on the column, six banger. It needed new wood for the box bottom (I bought a custom kit and a muffler). I read the millage book and since maintenance owned it ...the engine and body was flawless ... picked it up for $800. The only issue when buying is you need to inspect the item as maintenance workers may swap parts to fix another... such as a master cylinder ... be safe ... by the way Delta was there buying a Jet engine from a crashed aircraft ... I was told that wing's side wasn't damage???

      Dave knows exactly what he is doing, he probably got it dirt cheap, seeing how it has a full barrel for ballast. It's one hell of a job to jackhammer to clear out the concrete and horribly noisy, you need really good noise canceling headphones. Modify the barrel with steel liners inside to turn it into a mobile ball mill for gold recovery. The rest of the truck is a monster truck capable of many uses, would not be surprised if it has low mile/hours.
