    You've got to think 'outside the box'

    Get it? Dump truck without the boxes? Outside the box?
    That's funny. I wish I could thank my own post.

    Is it a dump and pup without boxes??
    Kinda looks like a tree length log hauler without the stakes!!???!!!
    See the telescope part of the pole?
    If that's so I hope they added an extra pin to lock the bunks?
    If it's what I think it is those bunks are designed to turn with the wood!?!

    Regular dump wagon- extend the reach to make weight, back into it to get around off highway. A buddy got busted by the jump scales running short- tried to pull it out & be on his way but it was rusted solid so they're always used to make weight & be legal! I've never really paid attention to whether they are common other places, probably only in 100k+ states. Most of the long-loggers (here) the stinger shoves back into the truck.

    I like how they added a headache rack- sure as #### that little rock will just bounce right off it if you get in trouble.

    65 to 70 would be my guess based upon normal dozer configuration, but not sure.

    @RGN, maybe too late but a D7R XR with SU dozer and no ripper weighs 60K. The SU dozer weighs 7,900 lbs. I would guess that the cable plow weighs no more than a dozer, but 65K should be safe.
