    The spinning of the drum isn't that bad, you can stop it if you are driving through a precarious situation or spread the weight towards the front if you need as well.

    Yeah that's not bad, I like to hit those 70mph speed limits and actually be able to do them, or do a little more if i have to get out of the hammer lane if someone sticks me out there...

    There were three guys directing traffic and telling us which pump to go to. It was a 3 foot thick pad that they are gonna put bins to wash silica sand on. It was crazy back an forth from the plant an the job all morning.
