I’ve had several occasions to play with photographing tow trucks … either for Freightliner, Miller Industries (they build Century, Challenger, Chevron, Vulcan, and Holmes brands), or for a book that I wrote called Tow Trucks in Action.
On assignment in Des Moines, IA for Freightliner, I came across this good looking Century wrecker from Hanifen Towing. Similar to shooting fire trucks, you don’t have to worry about cleaning a truck when you’re working with a towing operator. They take pristine care of their trucks and when it comes time for photos, the trucks are clean and polished!
This heavy wrecker was built on a Freightliner FLD chassis with a sleeper compartment.
