@@eliteearthworksllc thought I wanted one until you mentioned the price range. Ouch. I might be able to pony up for an old farm truck to haul my dirt, lol. But at this point I don’t do enough big dirt jobs for it to be practical. Handy ? Yes! Practical or affordable? Not just yet for me

[@jimmytew9468]

Nice new piece of equipment. when are we going to see Mrs. Elite run some equipment its been over a year. I can see her taking over your dump bucket and making it her own. LOL

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Yeah she needs to come run some stuff for a day lol.

[@vinnyhern]

Baby dumper, so cute 😂😂😂

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thanks 😁

Wow! That truck is sweet. A few steps up from the JCB for sure. I like the engine behind the cab, a lot more visibility. The turntable bed is super nice too. And BTW it is cute!😂

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! It’s extremely handy which I’m sure you’ve figured out with yours. Wish I had one years ago 🤣

[@dalepremo3695]

All I can say is OUTSTANDING!!! I'm really impressed and think you made a very wise choice in this purchase. This will save you tons of wear and tear on your other equipment in addition to all the other positive points you mentioned. You can always count on good ol' Dirt Boss for great counsel. The side dump features and being a little older unit is the best of all worlds. BTW, that perimeter looked pretty sharp to me. Looking forward to your next video.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! I think I did too the numbers seemed right over renting. Oh yes dirt boss was a huge help with advice and questions. It’s definitely been a game changer so far. Appreciate you watching as always

[@nategrose7673]

Congratulations on the the haul truck. Being able to dump off to either side is a cool feature and may come in very handy on some jobs. You've come a long way in a short time on equipment inventory. Job is looking good. Frank (digginok) should be proud of "footings" (basement).

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! I appreciate that! It’s crazy how the equipment and jobs have changed over the years. It’s probably my closest footings to Frank 😜

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

Im so happy that you found this haul truck. By the time you figure out all the function… school will be out and you’ll be ready to train Elite Lad! It’s perfect for repetitive short hauls. Quick, agile and great on uneven/soft surfaces. Having that Case available is a real bonus. Saved you transport, hours and frees the Koochie up for other jobs. I wasn’t ready for 90 degrees yesterday. Mike and I had a job taking down trees around a house… chainsawing ain’t summer work for me! Thanks for posting, I enjoyed it.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! I wish I would have had it at Diamond Grove Adventures lol! Yeah I’m not ready for the heat either. Oh man any tree work sounds terrible right now. Appreciate you watching

That little off road dump is nice. I used to run a 28 ton Randon. I have a front wheel assist farm tractor and a 15000 lb. dump trailer. I'll pull the trailer with a custom hitch made to fit a Category 2 quick hitch. It would work better if the cylinder was powered by the tractor hydraulics instead of the electric pump. This trailer was made to pull behind a pickup. Great vidya Dirty Money. Cheers.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

That sounds like a cool setup and quite the machine!

Congratulations on the new to you haul truck, as soon as I saw that I thought of a couple jobs I watch you work on where that would have been just the perfect truck to haul from one end of the job site to the other for stock piling. This is going to be like the dozer, how did I get things done before I had it. Thanks for the tag along and update video sir

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Yes I wish I would have had it years ago lol! It’s been a game changer so far and I’m excited to have it for my upcoming jobs. Appreciate you watching

[@GMCRanch]

That rotator under the bed is a game changer. I've only ever seen that on the tracked dump trucks before they use on the power and pipe lines here. Do you think it'd handle sideboards like Chris has on Barney? Our 730s and 735 CATs came with steel sideboards also. Added about 5 tons or so of capacity. Wasn't sure if that'd just end up wearing it out that much faster. Another advantage to the 4 tire truck vs 6 tires like the big ones is you're not tearing the ground up when you turn and drag those axles around back there. Much less repair after. Sweet truck!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Oh yeah it would definitely handle side boards. It’s a beast of a truck

[@brianherron5400]

Nice little dumper. Now you will have to hire someone to help you out.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thank you! Probably so 😁

[@markkenes4848]

Neat haul truck. If you load it right you can get about 40 ton on ????? 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Def needs side boards on it 👍👍👍👍

[@eliteearthworksllc]

🤣 that is true definitely needs some side boards.

[@marlondeere3039R]

You're going to start something with the side dumper. That would be great for backfilling

[@eliteearthworksllc]

I think so too! It’s a very handy feature

[@SoerenBruunJensen]

This Hydrema haultruck is in fact an old design. They started production around 1998, and has just adjusted and refined the design since then. If you ever need parts, but you don’t because of the build-quality, you just go out and find any modelyear and replace one to one. In Denmark it is used in almost all constructing project no matter size, because of the versatility, and the fact that you almost never get stuck no matter the conditions. It is streetlegal over here, so if you need to switch jobsite, you just hit the road at 30-35 mph the second you finished dumping last load.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Cool I appreciate the insight. Yeah this one is a 2012 and seems to be in great shape. Definitely been handy to have so far and I’m excited for the upcoming jobs I have for it.

[@SoerenBruunJensen]

It's the dump/haultrucks Big Bud.

[@SoerenBruunJensen]

I visited the factory back in 98'-99'-ish. Already back then they used waterjets or was it plasmacutters (?) to cut the parts and a 3-axis weldingrobot to make the bed. It was surreal to see the bed sitting on a 10 feet tall rotissery, while a ABB-robotarm with surgical precision welded it together.

[@jeff-hk8yk]

Wow - I love that truck! I'd drive it for you for free - heck, I might even pay you to let me drive it! Too bad I live north of Detroit - too far to commute.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

🤣 well if you ever visit you can take it for a spin 😁

[@sonnyblazer5504]

See, everything is a matter of time and hard work! HAPPY to hear you involving everyone's BIG GUY, *DIRT BOSS* gotta love that guy!

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Thats right he is always willing to give advice and I appreciate it. Lol she will definitely help make the truck look better 😁

[@ThriftyGarage]

Why not get a Wheel Loader instead of the Hydrema? Pretty cool truck! Definitely a little more $$ than I would have expected.

[@eliteearthworksllc]

I’ve got several jobs coming up where I need to move a lot of material on site to build pads and roads so this will be quicker than a loader. Yeah they are pricey. New they are around $235k so $100k wasn’t too bad 🤣
