Hello,

I live in the Southeast Texas area and have been unable to locate a logger that has a knuckle boom on the truck, or any way for him to self unload onto my property. Is there any practical way of locating a truck like this? Everyone that I've talked to thus far only runs the pole trailers and don't want to deal with me and my request for 3 loads a month. Sure is frustrating...

Have you looked in the Commercial Truck Trader? There is a dealer in Irving, TX that has them occasionally. I had just bought my Case W7 to use as a loader when he listed a truck. It was an older flatbed Ford with a Knuckle loader on the tail-end. It was not too unreasonable!

Mr Mom

How far are you willing to go and get one and how much are you willing to spend??
I know where there are some for sale dont price but can find out if you want.
Look on E-bay?? Seen some there.

Thanks Alot Mr Mom
