2027 Freightliner M2-X w/ Century 3212 16-Ton Wrecker

New 2027 Freightliner M2 Extended Cab with Century 3212 16-Ton Wrecker For Sale

Overview

This 2027 Freightliner M2 Extended Cab with Century 3212 16-ton wrecker delivers a highly capable combination for towing companies that need more recovery and towing capacity without stepping all the way into a full-size Class 8 heavy wrecker.

Power comes from a 360 HP Cummins L9 paired with an Allison 3000 RDS automatic transmission. The extended cab provides additional interior space, while the Century 3212 adds serious towing and recovery capability.

This truck is also extensively equipped for professional operation with a 14-function wireless control upgrade, tailboard remote, dual flush-mount cameras, Whelen lighting, towing adapters, rigging equipment, storage upgrades, and stainless dress-up components.

Century 3212 16-Ton Wrecker

The CENTURY 3212 16-TON WRECKER gives towing companies a versatile platform that bridges the gap between conventional medium-duty wreckers and larger heavy-duty equipment.

Its 16-ton rating makes the 3212 well suited for operators who encounter a broader range of commercial vehicles and recovery situations than a conventional light-duty wrecker is designed to handle.

For towing companies looking to expand beyond passenger vehicles and pickups, this Freightliner and Century combination provides an opportunity to add substantially more capability while retaining the maneuverability of the M2 platform.

360 HP Cummins L9 & Allison 3000 RDS

At the heart of this Freightliner is the Cummins L9 producing 360 horsepower.

The L9 is paired with an Allison 3000 RDS automatic transmission, creating a powertrain well suited to vocational towing and recovery work. The automatic transmission simplifies low-speed maneuvering and allows the operator to concentrate on positioning the truck during towing and recovery operations.

The combination of the L9 and Allison 3000 RDS is an important part of what separates this truck from lighter medium-duty configurations.

Extended Cummins Warranty Coverage

This truck includes valuable extended Cummins warranty coverage:

• Cummins Engine – 5 Years / 300,000 Miles

• Cummins Aftertreatment – 5 Years / 300,000 Miles

For a truck expected to accumulate significant commercial mileage, the extended engine and aftertreatment coverage adds another level of confidence during the early years of ownership.

Contact Lynch Truck Center for complete warranty terms, coverage details, and applicable limitations.

14-Function Wireless Controls & Tailboard Remote

The 14-function wireless upgrade gives the operator additional freedom when positioning and operating the wrecker during towing and recovery work.

A tailboard remote provides another convenient control point, allowing operators to choose the position that provides the best visibility for the task at hand.

Towing & Recovery Attachments

This Century 3212 is equipped with a useful selection of towing adapters and recovery equipment designed to prepare the truck for a wider range of vehicles.

Equipment includes:

• 5th Wheel / King Pin Adapter

• Spacer Kit

• Convert-A-Ball

• U-Bolt Lift Adapter

• 4-Ton Snatch Block

• Endless Loop Strap

• Chain Kit

• Rigging Storage Bar

The adapter package expands the truck's usefulness when encountering different towing configurations, while the recovery equipment keeps commonly needed rigging available on the truck.

Storage & Operator Organization

A dedicated tool cabinet provides organized storage for equipment that operators need throughout the workday.

The rigging storage bar provides an additional dedicated location for recovery equipment, helping keep chains, straps, and related gear organized and accessible rather than loose inside the body compartments.

Whelen Lighting Package

Visibility is critical when working roadside scenes, and this Freightliner is equipped with Whelen M6 warning lights on both the cab and wrecker body.

Additional LED swivel work lights provide illumination around the working area, while the flashing warning door kit adds visibility when compartments are open.

Together, these features help create a professional lighting package for nighttime recoveries and roadside operations.

Dual Flush-Mount Camera System

A dual flush-mount camera system provides additional visibility around the rear working area of the truck.

On a 16-ton wrecker, where positioning the wheel lift and towing equipment accurately can be especially important, additional camera visibility can be a valuable operator aid.

Stainless Dress-Up Package

Stainless dress-up components provide a finished appearance appropriate for a premium new wrecker while also adding durable exterior surfaces in key areas.

Combined with the Freightliner M2 Extended Cab and Century body, the stainless package gives the truck a polished professional appearance without sacrificing its work-focused specification.
