Is a dump truck helpful for building?

Yea, an old dump is nice to have around at times. My '75 GMC isn't pretty, but it works. Paid $900 for it. Title says it's something like 18,000 pounds GVWR, but the data tag in the glovebox indicates it's 32,000 pounds! Humorous part is the standard equipment 350 engine as indicated on the data tag. Can you say severely underpowered?

I like it Rod. Makes me wish I lived somewhere where the icicles was so long that I had to wear salty pantyhose and the roads was slick enough for rusty car salt.

The forecast looks like tomorrow afternoon the snow will start. For a couple days.

I should get home on monday night. If all goes according to plan, I can play Mr. Plow on tuesday. Should be fun!
