Where is everyone #5

Those little coffin sleepers look goofy, but man they would be handy for that rare occasion when we get caught out overnight away from a motel.

 

And then they scrape it all up with the payloader? What is the advantage of hauling it in the tank versus a dump trailer at that point?

 

Was kinda curious about that myself..

 

Got some big boy gauges now...



I’m just missing anything that resembles having a Man card. I don’t even get a lever to play with?!?!

Everything on this truck is a button or a switch.

 

What’s the outside look like

 

We'll be the judge of that, now show us that boat, lol.

 

Depending on what it is, might be moisture sensitive? I know some companies prefer things moving in pneumatics because they can keep stuff dry as opposed to a hopper bottom (the tarp could rip) or end-dump.

Or, they could just not know about those kinds of trailers and this is always how it's done, lol. Seems kind of silly to just dump it outside on the ground then scoop it up. A 4-inch hookup for their bin wouldn't be too hard to rig up.

 

Yes, Dogfish use to be a big warehouse, Drapers I think. I drove for the company right across the street from there, Reed Trucking.

Cool on the engines. Small world sometimes.

 

The load next to Shooter's appears to have been dumped by a belly dump.
May be just availability of trailers/loads rather than preference for equipment.

Edit: That fine sand would be problematic in a belly dump as far as sealing the bottom and not having any sand leaking out.
