This 2010 Hi Ranger XT55 is a used bucket truck — also known as a cherry picker or aerial lift truck — designed to elevate workers and equipment safely to height for tasks such as tree trimming, line clearance, and overhead utility work. Hi Ranger is a well-established manufacturer of aerial work platforms with a strong presence in the forestry and utility industries, building equipment known for its reach, durability, and suitability for demanding outdoor applications.
The unit is built on a 2010 Ford F750 chassis and configured specifically for forestry work, featuring a Hi Ranger XT-55 over-center boom with 60 feet of reach. The over-center design allows the boom to rotate past vertical, giving operators greater flexibility when working around obstacles such as trees and structures. Outriggers are fitted to stabilize the vehicle during aerial operations, and a cab guard provides protection for the operator when working around falling debris.
The truck is powered by a Cummins 6.7-liter diesel engine paired with a six-speed transmission. A hot-shift PTO drives the aerial and hydraulic systems, allowing the operator to engage power take-off without stopping. Additional driver conveniences include cruise control and a tilt steering wheel.
Beyond the aerial boom, the truck is equipped with a chip dump bed complete with a hydraulic hoist, making it fully functional as a forestry chipper dump truck in addition to its aerial work role. Practical working equipment includes tool and saw boxes for on-site storage, and a rear pintle hitch for towing additional equipment or trailers.
The seller reports this as a one-owner truck with 61,081 miles on the odometer, described as straight, clean, and rust-free — a notable quality for a forestry vehicle operating in varied outdoor conditions. It is located in Montana, USA, and is offered at $39,900.
