    I unloaded kitty litter into a pit like that one time. Only difference was I bottom dropped it into the pit. That took forever, the hole at the bottom was like 4"x4" square. Think I was there two hours

    I run 800-1000 rpm and if I go to 1100 the plug will blow and I’m running cement and making more money than I did hauling sand

    A lot of that is in the PTO gear ratios. Running cement I'm unloading at 1100 nowadays with this truck. Lime I'll go as high as 1300 when needed. If I run much less I melt the melt plug
