That butler truck is really nice and I mean really nice.

Would change the side doors to full size doors( make the door from the top rail down to bottom rail).
I'd get a 14 foot box and 7 foot height.

Our Butler in a gets dual use for carpet cleaning and water damage. The taller box let's you stand upright and the bigger allows us to carry the tools and equipment to process either service.

But... I just fixed some body damage on my box from the previous owner's employee driving under something too low. The low box has its advantages

If you're short its ok but the average person is going to look like an ape from bending over.

People hit anything if they are observant and forget how tall their vehicle is.

Is there a heating unit in the box for those of us north of the Mason - Dixon line?

Yes but Desk Jockeys don't need the taller boxes..... Does that mean you are Below Average??? and Mity...

That's a long lasting, reliable combo! If you can truly get one for $80k that's a deal! Atleast opt for high heat and the larger blower package, it will help resale significantly!

Is this motor/tranny combo better than what they put in the vans?

My new Butler will be about $66k, If my son ever decides to get into the water restoration side of this business I wouldn't hesitate to get the Butler box truck.
