Still making a few tweaks here and there, got a few more small things to do, but I decided to test the truck out by hauling some mulch to use for the driveway into the In-laws back yard where I'll be parking the trailer.....
Here's 4 cubic yards on the truck.....the mesh tarp with bungee cords worked great to keep the mulch from blowing off the truck...made a tight seal all the way around the bed.....and I couldn't really tell there was a load on the truck...that 350 V8 with a 4 barrel will .....suck some gas!.....
........
It only took about 15 mins to use the tractor to spread out this pile roughly.....and about ten mins of hand raking to knock off the high spots....about 30 mins max.....
This is about 450ish square feet at 2-3" deep......
Here's just the BX25D on the trailer with my DOT chains and ratchet binders...
And the truck and trailer ........
