The Versatran 20T Retriever is a heavy-duty equipment transport truck built on a 2027 Western Star 47X tri-axle chassis. Its 28-foot, low-profile transport deck, air-operated loading system, and integrated tie-down points support the loading, securing, and hauling of drilling, construction, and industrial equipment. The no-idle system allows deck and ramp operation with the truck engine shut off, helping streamline equipment movement at the jobsite.
Key Features
• No-Idle System: Allows loading and unloading with the truck engine turned off, helping reduce wear and tear during equipment loading.
• Low-Angle Bed Design: The curved deck creates a low loading angle to help simplify loading and unloading equipment.
• Flexible Transport Solution: One Retriever can support the work of several different types of transport trucks.
• Air-Operated Deck and Ramp: Designed for efficient operation while reducing concerns related to hydraulic fluid spills and cold-weather hydraulic warm-up delays.
• Heavy-Duty Deck Design: High-strength steel deck with multiple tie-down points for securing equipment.
• Transport-Ready Setup: Equipped with lighting, winch, chain storage, camera, and control features to support field transport needs.
