This 2015 Altec AT40G is a used bucket truck — also commonly known as a cherry picker or aerial work platform — built for working at height on utility, telecommunications, tree care, lighting, and similar overhead maintenance tasks. Altec is a well-established American manufacturer specialising in equipment for the utility and telecommunications industries, including aerial devices, digger derricks, and associated service vehicles. This unit combines a Ford F550 chassis with an Altec AT40G boom and a purpose-built utility body, resulting in a complete, ready-to-work aerial work vehicle.
The truck itself rides on a 2015 Ford F550 chassis powered by a 6.7-litre Power Stroke turbocharged diesel engine paired with an automatic transmission. The odometer reads 91,218 miles, and the seller notes that the motor has been serviced. A 50-gallon fuel tank supports extended working days without frequent refuelling stops. The F550 is rated at a 19,500 lb GVW, which keeps this unit under CDL threshold, broadening the pool of operators who can legally drive it. Bud wheels are fitted, and the VIN is 1FDVF5HT2FEB80567.
The Altec AT40G boom (serial number 1115EY1333) provides a 45-foot working height. The lift system features both upper and lower booms that are articulating and telescopic, giving operators the flexibility to position around obstacles and reach across a wide working envelope. Both upper and lower booms carry insulation, making the unit suitable for work near energised lines. Auxiliary hydraulics are installed, and the boom is controlled via pistol-grip controls. Continuous rotation allows the boom to swing without mechanical limit, and the system is driven by a PTO setup integrated with the truck drivetrain. Two outriggers provide ground stability during aerial operations. The single-man bucket carries a 350 lb capacity and is equipped with both a bucket liner and a bucket cover for operator comfort and protection.
The 14-foot Altec utility bed provides well-organised equipment storage for a working crew. Specific features include sign storage, wheel chock holders, a pintle hitch for towing, light hookup connections, and a brake controller for trailer use.
