The crowd at the 2002 Green Industry Expo in Nashville was noticeable.  They were standing around a truck that was shedding its bed via electrically-powered hydraulics.

The system is called the Switch-N-Go, manufactured in the United States by Bucks Fabricating.  It's a body changing system that allows the operator to interchange truck bodies in minutes.  Set a loaded body on the ground or pick up a loaded body.  You can even dump like a dump truck.  All this in one system.

The electrically powered hydraulics saves you the expense of adding a power take-off and pump to your automatic transmission.  The standard winch is rated at a 10,000-lb. capacity.  The scissor hoist will achieve a 50-degree dump angle, ideal for dumping mulch, asphalt and compacted soil.
