Hate when this happens
Took a load of stone to a homerowner. Backed in and went to pull up and started spinning. I locked my axles and diffs up. Then all 8 wheels just started spinning. I tried to dump the load where i was at to help push me out but that didnt work. So i called a buddy of mine with a f550 wreaker. 60 bucks later i was out. LOL

Yeah I hate that, you show up on the customers property and you get the same standard speech "Oh don't worry I have dumptrucks drive through there all the time" or " the bedrock is only a few inches down" so you back in and before you even have time to put it back into 1st to try and get out your sunk right up to the axles and the customers nowhere to be found.

I like when they say "That don't look like 25 tons", I tell them let me know if it feels like 25 tons when you are done shoveling it. |
