Selling my 2007 Isuzu NRR with Switch-n-go system. I built this truck 3 years ago with a new body, hoist, and toolbox. Prior to that it was a box truck. Comes with 12' (~18 yard) chip box and 12' log box. Has 24" wide backpack toolbox behind the cab and one underbody box on the passenger side (lots of tool storage). Truck weighs 11,000 lbs empty with the chip body on and 10,500 lbs with the log box. GVWR is 19,500 lbs. Has an Isuzu 5.2l diesel engine (~200 hp) and Aisin automatic transmission. 175k miles on the chassis. Steer tires are new this summer; rear tires all have good tread. 2" receiver hitch with 7-pole rv plug and brake controller.

This has been a very reliable and versatile truck for me. Selling because my setup has changed in the last few years and I rarely use the switch-n-go system. Getting rid of the log box will free-up space at my shop. Wheelbase on this truck is 130", which is about 4 feet shorter then the same body setup would be on a F550 or Ram 5500. Located in Madison, WI. I'm pretty sure I could stack the log box inside the chip box bed to take both in a single trip.

Asking price is $32,500. Thanks!

Why do I keep looking at this truck? I'm not even in production now, but I want badly to go get a $35,000 loan right now.
 
200 HP? How would that do fully loaded pulling a 9800 pound chipper? I also can't stop looking to this truck. Its a nice rig and would be perfect for our second crew!! But has to be able to pull a chipper up hills.....Im not looking for top speed but I don't want the slowest truck on the road either:)
 
Thanks for the enthusiasm! It is a nice truck and would serve a new owner well. Royce, I don't think this is the truck for you with that chipper. My current chipper is 8000k lbs and it does fine with it. That said, I'm going with an F550 on my next truck to handle that chipper better and have the option of pulling a loaded dump trailer or heavier chipper.

Thanks! That was my original thought. I need something more in the 300HP range for the hills we have here.
 
How would this truck do with a full wood load pulling a 16' dump trailer?
That is having the dump trailer close to capacity as well.

Spec the weight, Casey, not a nebulous trailer and load. OP told Royce no at 9800#. OP is upgrading for weight, but mentioned being okay in his location at 8k.

What’s the Wheelbase on that truck?

I've done this on occasion with my dump trailer. Again, the truck does fine with it, but I wouldn't want to put the transmission through this on a daily basis. If the truck and a 14k lb dump trailer were both full you'd be at nearly 35k lbs, which is a lot of weight going down the road. The log box holds A LOT of wood. It would take a big project to fill that and a dump trailer of wood in a single day.
