...I do believe it is.
Especially since the cost of delivery up here is pretty astronomical. $6.36 a ton for road base, or $6.36 for base, and another ~$50 for delivery.
Nuts to that, we said.

1965 International 210D 4WD, 6-7 yard bed, and a 10 foot plow blade.
Of course, it doubles as a snow plow, which is sort of a big deal for our property. I think this truck can plow through a few feet of snow going up our hill, if we were so inclined!
Very pleased with it so far. I haven't done any hauling with it yet, but I drove it home (sometimes even a highway speed) and it's been up and around on the property tinkering, just trying to figure out what the most pressing jobs are for it, and what maintenance I might want to do before we get too busy during the summer.
By my math, the truck will have paid for itself on the 11th or 12th load of base or gravel.

PS--to the other Clear Creek residents here, don't hesitate to ask if you need a load of stuff hauled in it
