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.

If you look at google maps the plants are on the same road but a ways apart.

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.
