Tyrel McLane of M6 Wrecker & Recovery was the guest speaker at last week’s Kingfisher Lions Club. A Kingfisher native, McLane started the company with his brother Tyson in April 2022. In its beginning, the company had two trucks and took 20 to 30 calls a month. They now have four trucks, five employees, two transport crews and an accident crew and last month took 192 calls. The company handles transports for the likes of Johnsons of Kingfisher and Jacksons Auto Family. Other calls consist of oilfield related jobs, calls for service from Oklahoma Highway Patrol and various police departments, DUIs, fatality accidents and other heavy crashes in Kingfisher and Blaine counties. McLane said M6 also has a state-of-the-art recovery unit that features a 30,000-pound winch box mounted on a skid steer. It’s one of only two like it in the state, he said. “This is a huge asset on semi crashes,” McLane said. He is pictured with Kingfisher Lions Club member Bill Reitz, left.
