The tow truck is owned by Rob's Towing down in Bristol. They refer to the truck as "Megatron", appropriatly enough

We have a company that has 3 of these "Megatrons" that does our towing. As well, they have a roll back trailer for those that can't be lifted by the hook.Originally posted by pasobuff

Yep. We've used Rob's quite a bit. Both for breakdowns and pulling us out of the courtyards. Sometimes we paid a price getting the best position on the fireground for the tower ladder. In the past, I've been the one driving the rig and getting it stuck (mtg55's father was Chief and ordered me in. haha) and I've been the Chief doing the ordering.
They are really good to the fire service, however I really don't know what they were thinking in the video.Last edited by Tower Dog 14; 10-27-2010, 02:31 PM.Comment

Nice hook!
What I can't figure out is why the original heavy hauler had 12 axels under the drill rig.
PA must have some really screwy bridge laws. Around here that would only have six axels under it. Thats small compared to a lot of the logging equipment used in the woods here.Comment
