Owner Mike Fimple upgraded his vacuum service truck to this 2002 Freightliner FL70 built out for Fimple in 2008 by Michigan Vacuum Trucks Inc. The rig is powered by a 3126 Cat engine tied to a 6-speed manual transmission. The working end of the truck includes a 2,500-gallon steel tank, which gets suction from a Masport HXL 400-cfm pump. Convenience features include heated valves, a 36-inch manway, side and rear working lights and sight glasses. The white cab is contrasted by a bright red tank with yellow and black vinyl graphics provided by T.A.B.S. Graphics in Atchison, Kan. Fimple hopes to add stainless steel tool boxes. The interior features air conditioning and radio. The truck performs mostly residential septic and restaurant grease trap service.
