Danko is built by Smeal...just a couple hours north of me in a small Nebraska town. Decent rigs.

Dan Kreikemeier used to work for Smeal, but Danko is his own company.

Cool looking rig. Looks like it could take care of business at a grass fire with the turret and 2,000 gallons of water. Nice pic!

Danko is separate from Smeal, as stated above. I was told they don't cross each other, which is why Danko makes tankers and brush trucks, where, in the grand scheme of things, Smeal does not.

Danko is also Smeal's dealer for Nebraska.
