This 2014 Altec TA60 is a bucket truck — also commonly referred to as a cherry picker or aerial work platform truck — a type of vehicle-mounted aerial lift used to position workers safely at height for tasks such as utility line maintenance, streetlight installation, tree trimming, and telecommunications work. Altec is a well-established American manufacturer of equipment serving the utility, telecommunications, and contractor industries, with a long track record of building truck-mounted aerial devices, digger derricks, and related equipment.
The unit rides on an International 7300 chassis and has accumulated 75,808 miles, offering a clear picture of its working life to date. Power is delivered via a diesel engine, and the truck is fitted with an automatic transmission, making it straightforward to operate in stop-and-go utility work environments. The drivetrain is configured as 4x4, providing traction capability on uneven or off-road terrain — a practical asset for crews working in rural areas or along right-of-way corridors where paved access is not guaranteed. The braking system is air-operated, as is standard on commercial-duty trucks of this class.
The aerial unit itself is the Altec TA60, with a working height of 65 feet and an insulated boom classification. The insulated boom is a critical safety feature for electrical utility work, offering protection against contact with energized lines. The truck is located in Bryan, Texas, is listed in pre-owned condition, and carries a stock number of 25231.
