About heavy-duty car carrier trucks
A car hauler truck is a commercial truck that is equipped to tow a specialized car-hauling trailer. Some car haulers are high mount, meaning they use a traditional 5th wheel that connects to the trailer above the rear axles of the truck. Other car haulers are stingers, with a 5th wheel that connects to the trailer low to the ground. Stinger configurations are quite common in car hauling because they can accommodate more cars per load, with their combined trailer and tractor head racks.
Car hauler trucks that use a stinger are not quite as versatile as high mount trucks, which can tow a variety of trailer types. But because the stinger allows for better utilization of space on a double-decker car hauling trailer, most specialized automotive transport companies make use of car haulers with stingers. Open car carrier trailers and enclosed vehicle transport companies both employ stinger trailers in their fleets.
Transwest has a variety of car haulers for sale, both stinger and high mount, ensuring that car hauling companies can find what they are looking for. Due to the specialized nature of the trucks in the car hauling industry, it’s important to buy from professionals who know exactly what your business needs. The experienced Transwest team provides sales and service support across the automotive transportation industry and will simplify the process, saving companies time and money.
