Appreciate all of the information, Rob.

Thanks for the advice, I'm looking for one now

I appreciate this video so much. Thank you.

Very good info thanks!

Very good I am in the mix of trying to find my first truck

Definitely found this useful 💯💯💯

Super 😎 thanks for sharing

Awwwe where are the outtakes? 😄 great vid, thank you!

Love the swiss army combo truck and trailer

Loved the info ! Great video. I was wondering whats your preference on what type of dump truck Manufacturer you like to buy

Thanks for the video. What are some good sites to find quality used tri axle dump trucks?

Great job on the video ! Great information for down the road. We rented a bobcat e42 for a driveway job. We only put 3 hours on it now we're wondering if a track steer would have been a better choice ? Leveling, grading cutting sod for brick borders and such. Ideas for videos,,,,, non-standard uses for standard contractor equipment

7:10 Tag axles are located behind the drivers. Pusher axles are located forward of the drivers. Very important in conforming to bridge laws. Also State compliance. WI allows tag axles but I've been told IL does not.

Roll off truck are great and can do the job too i think in my perspective

I love your truck 😎

IMO, when considering buying a dump truck, first thing to ask yourself as a biz owner is..will this be an on-demand unit or in use every day? Every downstream decision from there on, type/configuration, new/used, how used, employee profile needed, target jobs, etc. will be based on that. Choose wisely, because the wrong choice can sure wind up being expensive in a big hurry.

There I did it I hit the like button 😂😂😂

Aside from websites like ironplanets, truck paper, and other sites to look for trucks for sale, do you have any other recommendations for how to shop? Thanks and I loved the video it made me laugh.

What were the specs on the sterling you bought from Utah & what year was it?

Buy a wheeler...you can haul between 12-14 yards of material legally and you avoid the "heavy use tax" many states have for a tri-ax or other multi axle trucks....we don't use side dumps we use live floor trailers and super dumps don't exist here as we run 60K on a tandem, 76K on tri-ax and 100,000 on a standard tractor unit with a tri-ax trailer.

Good video! Also buying a used dump truck get it inspected or have a diesel mechanic look at it First!!

Saw a nice one this morning at kroger on isle 7 boi she had a big dump truck.

Dear Sir, I hope this message finds you well. I’ve been following your journey in the dump truck business on KZfaq and have been truly inspired by your success and insights. I obtained my CDL-A license in 2018, but I haven’t utilized it as I was a teacher until recently. I made a quiet exit from teaching due to the constant scrutiny from superiors and the increasing difficulty of the job, despite my love for the students. I am now seeking a career change into the dump truck industry and would greatly appreciate your advice on getting started. Specifically, I am interested in whether I should initially work for a union or non-union company. I’ve seen many trucks on the road and assume there are pros and cons to both. Additionally, I’m curious if it would be wise to gain a year or two of experience before purchasing my own truck and starting my own business. I value being home with my family daily or every other day and want to ensure this career choice supports that goal. Your guidance would mean a lot to me as I look for a positive change and a successful future in this industry. Thank you for your time and advice. Best regards, John

Stopped by the fuzz. Haven't heard that expression in a long time. LOL.

When you display a photo (for instance, showing and comparing 4 different types of trucks), you are too brief with the display. Leave photos up a little longer so viewers can digest. But your knowledge and content is great!

Where do you go to buy used dump trucks. There aren't many listing online.

Can I ask how did you bring your truck from Utah to Washington. Hired a lowboy?? Or if you picked up, and what paperwork you need it when crossing the scale?? Thanks Bro

would a Tandem do well these days in Georgia

As an Australian I get disappointed when I learn more of the particulars of American trucking, you really are hemmed in by laws. Here Highway Dumpers are generally called tippers, 2 rear axles is a bogie or tandem, 3axles is a 5 or 10-wheeler, or you have twin steer usually with 4-5 total axles. Often we will pull dog or pig trailers. After that you have semi-trailers where we will have b-doubles, or roadtrains with 3 or more trailers usually for mining. We can handle heavier loads, this 80,000lbs American limit is for pansies. Heavy haulage is generally done with tilt trays up to 13t and then floats for heavier machines. I've loaded 60ton+ machines, we do this on spreader-axle & or lowboy trailers depending on dimensions. Always with rear ramps and driving on with the trailer connected to the tractor. American heavy haulage seems bizarre with basic trailers that have to be dropped every time and obvious concessions to axle loading based on this 80,000 limit. It seems like larger loads like 110t Dozers, mining truck tyres, loaders and quarry excavators have to be largely disassembled. Land of the free in parts, I guess its all sent in parts.

Does your sterling have the Mercedes engine? I heard guys having a lot of problems with dust getting into the engine on those.

Greetings from a small and beautiful village of Iran where near to Caspian sea, I'm a dumpertruck driver and crazy about trucks and tractor trailers, your video about dump truck was definitely fantastic, thank you buddy

You need to look at a CDL flow chart. You can have a 26,000gvrw truck pulling a trailer up to 10,000lbs without a cdl. So technically you can drive 36,000lbs max without a cdl.

of course MACK

Whoa whoa whoa, wait a minute in your video you said if it exceeds 26,000 lb, that's incorrect it actually is at least in the state of Minnesota if it exceeds 26,001 lb! Lol ugh you know I had to do it😅

young man , IN MY DAY , I ALLWAY LEASE 0THER SELF EMP GRAVEL TRUCK OUT , PLUS + LET THEM SIGN UP TO HAUL THAT DAY OR WEEK , FOR ANY REALIZE THEY DON'T SHOW UP DOING THAT DAY OR WEEK THEY PAY ME $ 1000.00 / THIS WORK REALLY WELL ! .

I know all about Super Dumps.

A 26,000 truck and a 9999 trailer wouldn't require a CDL under federal regulations; some states are more strict for their own residents. Under federal rules, gross combined weight doesn't come in until class a territory and trailers not over 10,000 do not require a class a license.
