First of all, you can actually get a big rig wrecker for fairly cheap. I got towed once by a company in Las Cruces, i asked about starting my own wrecker service...guy immediately offered to sell me his truck for $45,000 ..dunno if he was totally serious about that. But the truck was a 1990 volvo wia, he told me it cost him $60,000 to do the conversion, and i know that's a $10,000 tractor....
Most areas really dont need more big wreckers though...
