    A friend of mine has the same transmission in a grain truck. I took some corn to the mill and it had to go to an overflow building. Had one of the kids from the mill showing me where to put it. Backing in the building I put it in low and the kid was getting huffy about how slow the truck was. I started shifting gears going backwards he looked at me like I was crazy. It was great.

    “The History Channel”. Now that’s funny. 😂 I don’t care when you make them, when you post them they’re brand new to me and they’re my favorite. By the way, a Mack was my first truck too.

    I just wanted to let you know I'm a mechanic by profession but I have a passion for earth moving and have a dump truck, excavator and skid steer that I use only for volunteer work around my community. You channel is the perfect blend of working on equipment and using equipment for my every day life. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming, even if they are 3 months late.

      Travis, I am looking to do the same thing as you. I enjoy the work and enjoy helping others. I have acquired a dump truck and trailer so far and am working on getting my first piece of equipment. Do you operate as a Non-Profit or do you strictly do it all pro bono? Would love to talk with you about your journey so far.

    Actually, Lt Dan does have a useful niche application if you run into a situation out in the woods building a pond or something where Bubba Dump won't fit or can't turn around easily. Lt Dan could pick up the slack perfectly on those on site haul jobs in tight quarters. Not to mention you can drive Lt Dan over the road to the jobs.

      @@wesleyfranzen6675 Technically, yes, Bubba Dump can drive to job sites, but if Officer Hoover catches wind of it, he'd probably have a few words with Mike, is my guess. Plus, for short distances, OK, I can see it, but if you have a job 10 or 20 miles away, you're not even going to consider driving Bubba there over the road.

    Clint has a great auction eye. I sold utility trucks for the power line contractors. They didn’t want new but they wanted it to go to work and be dialectical safe when they hit a job sight. When they have to put men up a 100 feet they want a great boom which I worked for Altec and a stable truck for that boom. People don’t understand what tough stress that boom puts on the frame so the section modulates had to be as strong as if I was putting a dump bed on the truck. That’s what contractors liked when they bought equipment from me because I considered myself as the contractor customer. Once you proved yourself they depended on me to fill their needs because they work hard for their money. This is why I love Dirt Perfect.

    Something to consider when you're putting your signs on your truck, also put the tons you want the quarry loader to load in your truck. Place the amount you want on the top corner of the bed so the loader operator can see it. I recognize trucks easy enough but never remember the tonnage they want. Tri axle want anywhere from 17 ton to 20 ton with one guy hauling 24 ton. Even the tandem guys haul from 15 ton up to 18 ton with 15.5 being normal. Them you've got the aluminum beds coming in and they want something else. Not everyone has radios
