Hauling Gravel

[mangus580]

I spent the better part of the day yestarday hauling gravel for a friend. He is adding 16' (I think) to the end of his shop, and needed some fill. Good thing he didnt hire a regular dump truck to do the job, as they would have had to move the gravel some distance

More pictures can be seen in my Personal Gallery

Well... the driveway probably wasn't all that bad before he made umpteen trips back and forth across it, loaded to the brim with moist gravel.....

Good to see the deuce at work!
With all that gravel you must have enormous traction,
nothing short of stalling the engine should stop you.

Bet it didn't steer too good in all that slop with all that weight over the rear! Can we say plowing?

 

[mangus580]

Actually it did pretty good...... but my steer tires are BRAND NEW... They would be lucky to have 200 miles on them.

I've had 9 yards of wet sand in mine many times. 32310 lbs gross on the yards scale. And i will be doing it again to fill in the holes in the back yard.
The turbo was running 12lbs of boost at 1250 deg with my foot on the floor. The trucks will pull when asked to.
