    We are right at 40K empty with the yellow Pete 386 and 3 axle XL. Our truck is not spec'd for heavy haul, which would add some weight. We will probably spec 1-2 heavy haul trucks in our next purchase.

    I can admit that I'm a troll but honestly the whole time I was watching that video, all I could think was it would take some special kind of stupid to dig a crooked fence line.

    Like the entire premace of the video shouldn't even exist. Like honestly nobody can be that stupid. Maybe I'm nieve I guess.
