CUSTOM Arborist Chip Truck - Ford F550 v10

In this video, I show you around the custom arborist chip truck I designed for my tree & hedge care business. The builder I chose to work with sent me some base plans and then worked with me step by step to NAIL all these details . Storage space was KEY since we don't process a TON of big material. Pruning and preservation is the name of our game. The box is 100% aluminium, making this truck under weight, meaning you don't need a fancy license to drive it. There is a LOT of storage on this truck, but after a year with it I can tell you that we use ALL the storage. It's the perfect mix of cabinets & chip space for VISION. Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think and if you have any questions about the custom build!

    haha yeah happens sometimes, but it's a quick flip! The truck is actually past legal driving width if the ladder is flipped up, we we flip it down when traveling. We are used to it, but maybe I'd look into another ladder option next time. I would not change that long cabinet though, its gold!

    Hi, to my knowledge, the bigger cabinet is called a tunnel cab. Ours is 5 feet high 3 feet wide and approximately 8 feet long. As for the other boxes, I believe they are called underbody cabinets. I hope that helps.

    We gave up on that idea! Not much room left in the cabinets. I have these little KEI trucks from Japan and I might turn one into a mobile coffee bar! As for the v10, we only do 5000 KM a year per truck. 4 years later, at 20k on the engine, nothing to report! Love the performance. Cheers!
