Gary 'Hopalong' Richards, Biglorryblog's man down-under looking after Mack and Volvo says: "Hi Brian,After seeing John W's / Modern Towing's new Mack wrecker, I got thinking (always dangerous) that BLB should feature some more BIG wreckers!! I visited Millers Industries (one of the world's largest manufacturer of towing equipment) in Tennessee a few years back and, literally, got hooked on big wreckers ...especially those twin steer "tators" (rotators) !!!" And brace yourself for some awesome hookers and wreckers! Click through here now!

Gazza adds: "We are starting to see more of such equipment downunder (as witnessed by those two Aussie Big Boys below) and I have included a UK based Kenworth T800 twin steer unit so the popularity is spreading."

"So here is a selection of units including some belonging to fellow members of the US based Tow411 network...Cheers Hoppy."
