Hah! I designed that truck! or at least one similar for that company. They leave Terex with a normal set of tires then they are converted To those tires. The Chassis is an international 7300, and It is a Terex XT55 mounted backwards. Usually they have chipper boxes so the basket is over the cab.

Edit: upon further review that is an older truck, I designed one in 2008 for them and that rear step to basket is very unsafe and not something I would have put on a truck So it is not mine, I bet it is what the order was written off of, cause it looks very similar.

yeah very sweet truck, farmers around here use that kinda setup to spread chiken manure or lime or whatever else they can thimk of. plus electric companies use them here some, casue alot of our powerlines are very hard to get to. western KY, is pretty swampy and hilly so that is a perfect setup for them to use.
