This unit was one of the nicest trucks we have seen. Big and stout
from the double steering boxes on the 16,000 # straight front axle all
the way through the 300 HP IH 530 back to the 38,000 # Meritor rear
axle. The customer from north of Cut Bank, MT was looking to
replace one of their older spray trucks and move up in capacity. We
replaced the original back rack with a newer version and also
replaced the original 60 - 80 ft folding boom with the new Stahly
steel 80 ft straight boom as pictured. The 1600 SS tank allows for
many acres covered between fills. They also wanted to keep the full
float tire option to help smooth the ride in some of the rougher
ground and allow them to tread lightly in wetter conditions. In the
cab they also asked for Trimble: EZ Guide 500 and EZ Boom with
auto steer to be added later. These producers have used trucks for
spraying for many seasons and knew what they wanted.
