    I think the driver did a great job of "spreading". I did a lot of that when I worked asphalt. Always remember, let the clutch out BEFORE tripping the tailgate,,,:eek:

    Did that a lot the 3 seasons I drove tri-axle. ‘Back-spreading’ is doing the same, but in reverse gear.

    Had several loads delivered and spread that way.

    One guy did not listen to me and backed into a ditch. His coworkers pulled him out and made him buy lunch.
