Default HIAB crane

In the late 70's I spent a summer as a construction worker in Alert (then) NWT. Somehow the staff trusted me with a dual wheel "Deuce" with HIAB. No course or 404's (on that model at least), but a quick walk and talk through. It was a handy tool to load generators and other heavy small objects. I used it to lug supplies to one work party working out on the tundra, building a water pipeline as I recall. I told myself if circumstances presented themselves and I needed a truck with a crane, that would be very good first option. I still think that way.
