I have rented this truck and a Ward La France 100 foot ladder truck out for birthdays, parades, car dealers, parties, movie/ commercial shoots etc. I no longer have the time and am planning a long distance move and have too many large vehicles. This truck runs and drives great. I would not hesitate to drive this truck across country, I have driven it 500 miles in a stretch. However, I can help with shipping via lowboy trailer (price based on location.) Truck comes with some hose, nozzles, coats, boots. Hose bed dividers are also included but are not pictured. This truck was originally a Kansas city truck then it went to Lincoln, Montana Volunteer Department. More pics available. $7,900 OBO.
