THE 5 TON 6X6 HAS GUTS

Post by Joe Gopan » Tue Dec 19, 2017 5:32 pm

The 5 Ton 6X6 gasser is a fun truck to drive, it is quite nimble for its size. The M-54 Cargo weighs around 20,000 pounds and the operating weight of the M-62 Wrecker is 43,000 pounds. There is little difference in the power, the Continental R-6602 hardly notices the difference in weight, just point it and go.
