This 2017 Ford F450 XLT is a tow truck — sometimes called a wrecker or recovery truck — designed for roadside vehicle recovery, accident response, and light-duty towing operations. Ford is one of the world's most widely recognised vehicle manufacturers, with its Super Duty commercial truck platform widely used across towing, emergency services, and fleet applications. This unit is offered in used condition from Florida, USA, and is priced at $49,900.
The upfit is a Jerr-Dan MPL-NGS integrated selfloader wrecker, built on a regular cab, rear-wheel-drive (4x2) F450 chassis powered by a 6.7-litre Ford turbocharged diesel engine paired with an automatic transmission and equipped with air conditioning. Jerr-Dan is a well-established name in the towing and recovery equipment industry, known for producing purpose-built wrecker and carrier upfits for light, medium, and heavy-duty applications.
The core recovery component is a 4,000 lb self-loading underlift, fitted with an underlift stop assist system and self-loading wheel grids with LOCKLINK technology. The underlift boom carries a 4,000 lb rating at both retracted and extended positions, with a retracted reach of 48 inches and an extended reach of 79 inches. Positive tilt is 15 degrees and negative tilt is 7 degrees, allowing the operator to accommodate a range of vehicle heights and approach angles. The rated tow capacity of the unit is 7,500 lbs. An 8,000 lb drag winch is also fitted, providing additional recovery capability when a vehicle cannot be self-loaded conventionally.
The steel welded body features diamond plate decking and incorporates No-Lube Technology for reduced maintenance. A driver-side toolbox and a passenger-side toolbox are included, providing on-board storage for rigging and recovery hardware. Lighting equipment includes an amber LED light bar, rear clear work lights, DOT-compliant lighting, and a backup alarm. Control is via a wired remote, and all standard DOT safety requirements are addressed through the fitted lighting package.
Included tow equipment consists of two wheel lift safety straps, two safety chains attached to the boom, and two tow socks, providing the operator with the core rigging needed for standard light-duty recovery and transport work.
