I have never operated machinery like this. I have always had the dream to, but never happened. Now almost 70, doubt that it will. Chris, you must use a wheel barrel to carry your junk! doing those slopes had my grommet puckered . then it would slide, crap, good video, most educational on the operation and how to slope. Man, my hat is off you guys that get to do this .

I know this might sound stupid and I know that opinions are like assholes but have you ever thought of renting an excavator for a day? Not a big one but a smaller one at a local renting shop or something. Just thought it would be a comparable experience.

There's spray on bed liners that help to stop the dirt sticking to the bed also reduces wear.you could always get Jasonworksalot to make up some big hammers that swing under the bed so when the beds up you can drive alit and stand on the brake to get the hammers to swing and bang the bed to dislodge it!I always lay in the first few buckets as close to the floor as I can so I dosnt pack up!

@clay bain....In loose soil like he has its somewhat difficult to get a dozer to "ride" a 2h:1v slope (aka 50 percent grade or 26.57 degrees)....this steeper grade is usually done by taking the dozer up and down the slope with the machine at an approximate 45 degree angle to the path of the road. However a dozer will "ride" a 3h:1v slope (aka 33 1/3 percent grade or 18.43 degrees) while tracking parallel with the road alignment, which is what most mowable roadsides and dams are finished at.
