Meet Our Newest Truck - New Year, new gear over here at Research Alloys! We’re ringing in 2026 with brand new equipment– a custom-made M2 106 Plus truck from Freightliner.

 #44 is the newest addition to our vehicle fleet, and it’s got everything we need to ensure our pickups go smoothly. We pride ourselves on providing truly custom-tailored scrap recycling programs for every client, so it’s important that our vehicles can cover our many needs. #44 is perfect for smaller pickups! From the removable side gates to the dock-height bed, this truck is ideal for hauling a few barrels or a dozen gaylord boxes. 

 

Safety is also top-of-mind for all of our vehicles. Equipped with heavy-duty straps to secure loads, backup cameras and speed detectors, as well as ergonomically-friendly seating, #44 ensures that our materials arrive safely and our driver is protected. Plus, active brake assist helps mitigate potential collisions with stationary and traveling vehicles as well as moving pedestrians by automatically engaging warnings, and partial or full braking– and the added lane departure waning lets our driver know if the truck veers into another lane without signalling. 

 

And she’s versatile, too! Smaller in size than some of her big brothers on the lot, #44 is more maneuverable when it comes to accessing smaller client sites, meaning there’s no pickup we can’t handle. With up to 55 degrees of wheel cut and a swept-back bumper, this truck provides excellent maneuverability in narrow city streets, busy job sites and other tight situations.


 

We’re excited to see what the new year brings for our company, our team, and all of our valued clients. And what better way to ring in the new year than with a fresh new fleet member to help us get the job done!
