City of Phoenix ⇨ Last Remaining 2003 Mack MR Leach 2RII Rear Loader

Disclaimer: This video is not endorsed nor sanctioned by the city of Phoenix.
First, I'd like to thank the phenomenal crew for allowing us to video this piece of history. The Mack MR Leach 2RII is quite the common combination across the east coast, and over 13 years ago the city of Phoenix took delivery of many of them along with Condors. Now, that number has dwindled down to two, as one of each remain in the city fleet, and both are spare or shuttle trucks. Andrew and I wanted to film this combination one last time, as this truck's days are numbered. I haven't filmed a Mack Leach rear loader owned by the city in over 5 years. Enjoy the video, and again, hats off to the exceptional crew for making this possible!

Good to see this beast is still in use, I LOVE when the driver puts on the CB radio on the outside speaker!

Last remaining? That thing looks brand new! A few months ago I saw a beat-up 1980s International S-series with an Heil 5000 body working in Canada!

Thank you for the comment!

Crazy to think this is one of two that remains in the fleets! Obviously makes it that much more exciting to film haha These Leaches have really grown on me, I'm a huge fan of ribbed RLs. So does this crew just drive around a neighborhood or is it on call? Like at 3:06, that doesn't look like stuff I would think a resident would call for, but never know. Awesome find! Congrats on finally getting one again after 5 years!

[@RefuseArizona]

Thank you for the comment! This is part of the quarterly pickup the city offers each year. Nothing is on call yet however there are plans to do so. With these alleys the crew tries to clean up as much as they can. The residents really don't care unfortunately. It was great to see one of these in person again!
