.....I did what your asking about for a little while and now I have moved on to a class 8 with a custom built car hauler with living quarters....the wrecker is still used as a backup and When I just go fishing I take the wrecker and a boat up top or behind on the stinger-usually the stinger.....It fit my needs and then along came two opportunities so I went that route....My wrecker new was $42,000 out the door and a new Dodge P/U was $48,000 plus tax to pull the same weight-so I took the big one!.....I don't regret it as it isn't quite as confortable as the Volvo and carhauler....BUT when I get to a dock or ramp there is usually a boat/trailer/car/truck or some poor miserable guy that can't get it started no matter what he tries-and now has a dead battery or some other issue-which for a reasonable sum I can provide assistance.....all in all I have come out ahead on almost every fishing trip....$70 to hook up the car/ truck/ boat and $1.50 a mile....cash price of course.....geof
