I used to pass that green dump truck up in the Edmonton/Sherwood park area all the time when they were finishing the Anthony Henday belt route around Edmonton. I've seen some seriously bad ass dump trucks up there

Time for a photo dump.

If y'all couldn't tell, I'm kind of a sucker for A-Models

Buddy's uncle owns that truck. Bought it new and has to be knocking on 5 million miles by now, all driven by one man.

 

[Mr.T]

That's bad ass

[Mr.T]

I do believe its a B-model clatterpillar.

Thought it was a spencer unit at first, but that's out of Denver, right?

Ever see a guy walk into a truck stop and you can just tell he's one of those guys that's gonna die in his truck seat? Yea this fellow is one of those.

Yup. E&F Trucking along 272 just north of Denver. They've got some sharp trucks in their fleet.

Tripp Looper bought that truck off Mike Horst/Reed.

This is how Canadians do dump trucks.

Wouldn't it be easier to just haul it in one wagon? Never understood the transfer truck point. Seems like a lot of work for such a small payout. If your going to mess with dumping twice let's make it worth it.

 

[Mr.T]

Those aren't transfer sets, that's a dump truck pulling an end dump haha

 

[Mr.T]

These are really common in Canada too

I know doesn't that make more sense than rolling a box inside a truck to dump it?

 

[Yooper75]

We have a company here in Upper Michigan that uses about a dozen trucks set up like that to haul Gold ore from the mine to the mill.

Yeah it makes way more sense. Transfer sets always made me scratch my head

Transfers are nice for tight places, lot lighter too.

Depends on how you look at it, if you're going to a place where you can only get a 10 wheeler in, it's a lot more efficient than 2 trips to the plant. I stockpiled with one for a day and that was enough for me.
