Truck will need to be jumped to be driven off of the lot
This 2002 Freightliner MT45 food truck features an 18-foot Grumman Olson body with 14,140 lb
GVWR requiring no CDL for operation (VIN 4UZAANPW72CJ09844). The truck has a diesel
engine and automatic transmission. The exterior displays aqua/teal and blue checkered vinyl
graphics with LUDICROUS branding and includes one passenger-side serving window with roll-
up door and menu board, plus an Insignia outdoor menu monitor. Rear entry door equipped with
diamond plate step, handrail, and LED lighting provides crew access.
The gas cooking line includes a CookRite ATFS-40 countertop fryer rated at 90,000 BTU with
40 lb capacity, a 24-inch CookRite flat top griddle with two burner controls, and a 24-inch
CookRite charbroiler with cast iron grates. All equipment is installed under a North American
Kitchen Solutions LBOX Series 6-foot Type I hood with baffle filters and Buckeye SRM2-M fire
suppression system. Gas is supplied from a single underbody-mounted LP cylinder in an
aluminum enclosure with regulator, brass shutoff valves, and iron pipe distribution. Power is
distributed through a Square D Homeline 100A panel with 120/240V single-phase circuits.
Refrigeration consists of three 2023 Atosa units: an MBF8519GR single-door reach-in cooler
(33–45°F, R290 refrigerant), an MBF8520GR single-door reach-in freezer, and an MSF8301GR
refrigerated prep table with 8-pan condiment rail. All refrigeration operates on 115V single-
phase power. The prep area includes a Regency three-bay back bar sink, a Regency wall-
mount hand sink with foot pedal control, a Regency stainless steel work table with undershelf,
and overhead stainless steel shelving.
Interior surfaces include stainless steel and white FRP wall panels, diamond plate aluminum
flooring, white FRP ceiling panels, and fluorescent lighting. The truck shows normal operational
wear for its age with exterior paint oxidation, minor surface rust, and faded graphics. The
cooking equipment requires degreasing due to significant grease and carbon buildup. The LP
compartment access door latch is bent and non-functional, requiring repair. Moderate rust is
present on the LP tank exterior. Fire suppression cylinder inspection tag status could not be
confirmed. Buyer should inspect to verify all systems are operational before purchase.

POWER & DEPLOYMENT NOTES
This truck is equipped with a 100A Square D Homeline electrical panel distributing 120/240V
single-phase power with labeled circuits for lights, air conditioning, ventilation hood, water
heater, and three plug circuits. All three Atosa refrigeration units and the Coleman Mach AC
operate on 115V single-phase power. Generator presence, make, model, and output capacity
were not confirmed in available documentation — buyers relying on off-grid generator power
must verify generator status during inspection. GVWR is 14,140 lbs per door jamb data plate —
no CDL required for operation in most jurisdictions, but buyers should verify local requirements.
