Description
The 2016 Ford F‑550 Bucket Truck equipped with the Altec AT48S articulating/telescopic aerial device is a powerful, under‑CDL work truck designed for sign companies, utilities, lighting contractors, telecom crews, and municipalities. With a GVWR of 19,500 lbs, this truck remains UNDER CDL, making it easier to staff and deploy while still delivering the heavy‑duty performance expected from the F‑550 platform.
This unit is powered by a 6.7L diesel engine producing 330 horsepower, paired with an automatic transmission for smooth, reliable operation. A major value‑add: the engine and transmission were replaced at 202,780 miles, and the turbo and starter were replaced at 257,005 miles, with the turbo still under warranty—a significant advantage for buyers seeking long‑term dependability.
The Altec AT48S provides a 53‑ft working height, 31‑ft horizontal reach, and a 440‑lb platform capacity, making it ideal for elevated work requiring both reach and precision. As a non‑insulated articulating/telescopic boom with material‑handling capability, it is perfectly suited for sign installation, lighting maintenance, and general aerial tasks. The unit has been ANSI inspected, ensuring it meets industry safety and performance standards.
With 266,277 miles and extensive recent component replacements, this truck is work‑ready and qualifies for extended warranty programs. Financing is available for all credit situations, and trade‑ins are welcome.
