  • Check out some Action from yesterdays rebuilding of the driveway. This driver was very skilled. We asked him to Drop Spread (aka tailgating in truck talk) in reverse due to the real soft, freshly graded and wet dirt, and to save time so our Builder did not have to move a whole Pile of gravel as we wanted to finish this project in one day (Which we did, stay tuned for more complete updates!). This dump truck might give you younger kids some farming simulator ideas!

      I don't care what all the genuis' say, he rocked that thing especially with super soft clay underfoot! (And that he'd been out of driving for awhile as well!) Thanks.

      @Halfstep2024 5 років тому +4

      I don’t see what’s so impressive and I ran a gravel/dump business for over a year. Spreading in reverse is no different than going forward if anything he laid it way too thick and left mounds at first.

  • @mobleyMobley
    @mobleyMobley 5 років тому +85

    Alright, listen up. I knew a dumpie once. Could spread the cleanest, best layer of pebbles the world has ever seen. I saw him in action thrice, he was a god damned artist, last of his kind, sadly. Folklore says, one Christmas Eve, long ago, he dumped 128 Christmas Trees to all the poor residents of Dumpville. Legend has it, that he dumped each tree, right side up, directly inside the living room of each family, from his truck. Christmas Miracle!! Happy Holidays!!

    @ryan05753 3 роки тому +6

    It’s a art of perfection for sure. I haul with a dump trailer behind my ram 3500 and my first tailgate was complete crap. After a few runs I found 4wd low at a certain rpm depending on how thick I need to spread works every time after many trials of calculation. This last summer I got pretty good with doing it backwards like this installing new drives by trailer. A good driver definitely saves you time and money.

    • @kapperoutdoors
      @kapperoutdoors  3 роки тому

      Thanks and yep, I agree. Takes some practice, but in this case, with the clay super soft, we really needed this one to be spot on!

    • @kapperoutdoors
