This MAN TGS x6 is a used timber truck — sometimes called a forestry truck or log truck — built for the harvesting and haulage of timber, transporting felled logs from forest extraction sites to processing yards or sawmills. MAN is a well-established German commercial vehicle and truck manufacturer with a long history of producing heavy-duty vehicles for construction, forestry, agriculture, and long-distance haulage across global markets.
Manufactured in 2012, this truck has covered 560,000 kilometres and is offered in used condition from Romania. Power comes from a 480 hp engine meeting Euro 5 EEV emissions standards — the Enhanced Environmentally Friendly Vehicle classification, which represents a particularly clean tier within the Euro 5 framework. The truck is fitted with an automatic transmission, making it accessible to a broader range of operators and well suited to demanding terrain where a manual gearbox might impose additional fatigue.
The suspension configuration combines leaf springs at the front axle with air suspension at the rear, a setup commonly favoured in heavy forestry haulage applications for its blend of robustness at the front and load-cushioning compliance at the rear. The loading space measures 6.2 metres, providing a substantial platform for carrying felled timber.
This truck is also equipped with a Penz 23000 hydraulic crane, which delivers a maximum reach of 10.7 metres. The Penz 23000 is a heavy-duty timber loader well regarded in the forestry sector, and its 10.7-metre extension allows operators to reach logs at a considerable distance from the truck, facilitating efficient loading without repositioning the vehicle.
