The old guy in our neighborhood who is pretty much retired now had a big wheel tractor backhoe, a KW dump truck with pup, and a dozer and a grader.
Otherwise just get what you want for your own needs, and maybe help out a neighbor once in a while. |
Most guys around here have given up their dump trucks unless they are very large company . Most use dump trailers I have had this one for close to 8 years
