Default Mlvw

When the first ML's were sent to Crown Assets we purchased 3 of them, one was an MRT with Hiab and 1 x RPSS Supply truck and a cargo. We sold one truck this spring, the MRT last year and this leaves us with one. I have been trying to get them registered but no luck in the province of Quebec, now I live in Ontario and will try a few new angles.
The truck we have has been modified as we removed the intermediate axle, but we didn't shorten the frame, we changed the location of the muffler exhaust. The pipe is over the cab, added extra lights and the remainder is the same.
This truck was parked outside all winter and it started everytime without being boosted. The truck is our yard truck for the moment and does all the dirty work.
I have both MLVWs and the US M35 basically the same truck but the ML is superior and has power steering but the M35 is my workhorse onroad vehicles and drives to shows often pulling our Mobile Kitchen trailer, yes we own a MKT just like the ones in service.
The guy I bought the truck from bought 35 at one time and plans to buy as many as he can when they get rid of the remaining fleet, he sold 6 trucks and parted out the remainder(made a fortune).
Yes the trucks are big but if you have the space, they are really worth having. The first 2 pictures are MLVWs and the last is a US M35. Gilles
