"Great big fuckin' moose there, you can't miss it" LOL
those old foreman guys always have something funny to say 😆
That guy's instruction was annoying.
@klyddkross nah you just have no sense of humor
Lol...typical site boss. Size 2 hat and size 13 shoe..lol
The instructions were ridiculous. Should have just given him an address…
i love how older guys describe you where to go for 5 minutes, then ends it with "real easy" and expects you to remember everything you said. damn just send me a pin on google maps bro
Dang man you must have heavy contracts and be a millionaire driving a $300k dump truck. Most people I know run $50,000-$125,000.
"Just go this way and take a left, then go that way and go right. Cross the tracks twice and vere left. Go right at this place, left at that place, veer right and you are there. Real easy. You can't miss it." lol
😂😂
I got lost in my house after those directions😵💫😵💫😵💫
left left right right left right left left right right right left left left left right left right left left right right then aroud 7 round abouts
Is "go down past the Moose Lodge" the Minnesotan version of "turn left at the Dollar General" like we do down here in the South? :)
I love how clean all those dump trucks look compared to the shit around me.
Nice rig, I hope at $300k you are getting consistent contracts to cover your cost and make something well to live on. I always appreciate entrepreneurial people and want them to succeed in the most honest and easy way possible. Precisely what we are missing nowadays due to big corporations. Stay safe driver ✌🏽🇺🇲
thank you for the kind words
@@lifewithhelge as a guy who has own lots of trucks(petroleum local work) hope you are getting at least 200 bucks an hour(ie,per ton rate) --
@@dethray1000hmmm I’m actually really curious on this too cause I do the same work as a Owner operator in the Bay Area, people typically pay 120-150/hr and everything is so expensive over here
@@crazymid11 when started in calif in the '70ties by law a transfer unit would get 53 bucks an hour--i started hauling commonditites by the ton and could average 75 or so an hour but because we were rolling all the time my costs were higher--my last gig was a tanker from Nevada to long beach--with two other drivers running almost 24 7 we would gross over 500k a year and my net was about 200k a year--did it for 11 years,retired over 2 years ago--everything is a rip nowdays--glad i am old and done-wish the 27 yo and you well
This guy lying
“Great big **fuckin** Moose” 🤣😂 5:33
Nice to finally see a triaxle driver not tailgating in the left lane doing 87 mph and cutting people off In and out of the lanes.
quit calling me out
its a 5 axle
I’m guessing you live in Virginia too. 😂
@@justinstamper6219 so you got the joke
That Volvo is slick!!! Such an overbuilt and capable truck.
Thanks!
Kw or Pete will run circles around any volvo
@@edgemonsiteworksllc3369 with what.. less hp
@@edgemonsiteworksllc3369 most trucks got there own perks that better than the other id say. but us is a bit behind in trucking tech.. :)
@@hampusgranstrom6267 lol. Yea ok. We have more trucks and safer transportation than any other country.
I've been retired for about 20 years. I used to haul material to feed a cement plant, the last few years part time. KW cab over with a 34' dump, w/R permit. That's a sweet looking truck with all those Alcoa's!! Things have changed, your missing a pedal on the floor! LOL 8) I was so used to shifting 12 up and down I could do it in my sleep, I did some days LOL. I can't believe how smooth the new ones run with the auto! I've done some 2 man long/wide/heavy OTR since I retired, still no auto though. Very nice, thanks for the ride!! 8) --gary
thanks for commenting! yea i still enjoy manual haha
Turn right by the blue moose, back to the left, come around 7th street, back up to 3rd street, you'll see CN yard. Then drive down , you'll see it, dump back there. Love it.
Can you do a video about the dump truck business? Everything from buying a truck to finding customers.
Where do you live?
it never ceases to amaze me how big the prices can get.
What a Beautiful Rig! I would be Crapping my pants every time that Loader got next to it!
You are on the ball - hence the heads up on new loads ! Excellent - - -
That is a very good video that you put out
You are very knowledgeable in your job
I pray that new drivers can watch something like this and learn from you
Love the foreman directions ! Good guy on the work site -
That’s a beautiful truck. Also it’s hilarious how some doubt the price of this truck…. Bro, a pickup truck costs $105k, don’t bring up semi trucks you bought in the 90s and early 2k prices lol… this was very interesting to watch. Subbed 👊🏾🤘🏾👍🏾
Thanks, appreciate the kind words!
My 2024 Ford F600 hooklift was $145k. $300k for a new dump truck is not as outrageous as most people think. Everything is expensive.
I wouldn't trust an NRA member's opinion on what color the sky is, let alone anything else.
@@matt34003434 ,
Thanks to the current democrat administration, that's what's causing all the skyrocketing economy.
Badass rig! I only drove those 16s for 3 months and loved it
If he paid 300,000 for this one…..I have one for sale😉
Just a little click bait but the price isnt far off. If I had to guess brand new its $275k
@@OneShot_GAdd tax and it 300k
I was in the dump truck business until president Bush put me out of business in 2008…..
@@2010bigfathen so very sorry for you
@@2010bigfathenhow did he put you out of business?
That truck is beautiful, and a work horse! Congratulations!
thanks!
@@lifewithhelge you deserve it!
I have a 2005 all black VHD and the keyless entry still works. Volvo is always way ahead of time!
Idk what it is about dump trucks but I saw a dozen of them brand new probably 2024 working through the target parking lot and they were beautiful
that’s awesome, glad to hear about other fellow truckers
That’s the best truck I’ve ever seen ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
thank you! they do look pretty good 🤩
I hope you do well in that rig. Don’t forget good maintenance!
40 years ago, we were building the campground for Splitrock Lighthouse. Lots of trips up and down Hwy 61.
I drive a PACCAR K/W T-880, & I hate where they put the air brakes. It's down by where you'd set your coffee cups. What an asinine ideal. Every truck that I've ever driven has always had the brakes set up high on the dash, like you have, easy & a more natural movement for the driver. Nice vid. thx for sharing. Drive safe. 🤠🤠
Wow, old fashion directions, turn at the Moose Lodge, you know its the Moose Lodge, there is a big Moose out front!!! How funny
Cool channel you learn something new every day. I appreciate you recording this for us. I'm from Connecticut. Nice to meet you.
Good video - thanks .
That Dump is sick...
Great video, thanks!
Nice truck! Good luck and be safe..
Awesome truck ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nothing like a new truck!!!
my 70k truck does the exact same for the same rate as that
that's awesome man!
I watched many owner operators with awsome expensive rigs go broke in a very short time. Unless you are hauling gold at a incredible price, buy a cheaper truck. I ownd a trailer leasing co and was the president of a truck line.
That's A good truck = And should have Many Yrs & Miles of Trouble Free Service = STAY Bussey Make Lots Of Moola = Drive Safe = GOD Bless
Rhode Island Saying injoy your new Ride 😊😊
thank you sir !
This truck is the beautiest i ever seen
It’s not a “Luxury Dump Truck” without a nice sleeper.
sort of agree... but they don't make dump trucks with sleepers
@@lifewithhelge I actually seen a dump truck recently at the west coast with the smallest sleeper you can get.
@@lifewithhelge is the all of USA? Im aussie and we have a lot with sleepers still. But assume US does less away work for dumpers
@@audoinxr6372 he's in canada 😂
I bet Western Star would make you one here in Canada if you wanted.
That's a nice truck!
I wouldn’t air the bags/bellows down when loading to make the truck shorter. Let those machines reach and even beat that board up if you have to. You don’t want to stress your bags trying to air up and pick the load up. They are also made to compensate for the weight difference around the body.
thanks for the tips!
That's exactly what I would do. Inflated bellows can explode when taking a big heavy load when it's dumped fast. He's doing the right thing. Heavy haulers: like, excavator, wheel loader, big dynamos that are loaded on a trailer with a crane: ALL drivers air down their bellows. If the bellows can't pump it up: you're overweight. Bellows should be able to take the load.
beautiful truck
Nice looking truck!
Thanks 👍
Beautiful Truck!
Nice truck bro keep up the good work!!! Just subscribed
I hope it all works out 👍🏼
Gorgeous truck!
Bob Nuss has a truck museum in Rochester, his open house is worth the trip.
On the ball , ready to go , set up to work ! Early - good attitude , etc . Be cool - work hard -
Be ready early ! FN A
Maaaaan I would touch no dirt with that truck lol
That is a gorgeous truck!!!
thanks!
You didn't give any specs on your Wolwo(that's from one of the neighbor kids, I thought it was funny) or the box. You didn't talk about the tranny, engine, gearing or what you thought of the ride & handling? This is a 2024 model? Did you install the CB or was that a Volvo option? Maybe you could mention that stuff in your next video & Thanks!
Ill be doing a a separate video all that info
Beautiful truck.
All the lift axles are confusing for an Aussie. 😄
We have maybe 1 and thats it. But our tippers/dumpers nearly always have trailers too
You don't have 50 different countries to deal with like the US does.
@@Failure_Is_An_Optionstill it’s confusing,😅
Nice truck good luck
Very professional and well spoken. New subscriber.
Welcome aboard!
Beautiful truck, take a picture. They don’t stay that way long.
For sure!
At our quarries, the drivers are never allowed to exit their truck until leaving the exit gate.
Got off kinda lite,New Century M-100 heavy wrecker on a twin steer W9 Kenworth worth ready for this $ 1.4 million dollars. You could buy 3 of those and have some change for the strip joint if so inclined. But they are furnished with but nothing but the best.
@300k there young feller, you had better have alot of work and hope for zero break downs, i've seen many owner operators go down fast, little things like, payments need to be paid even if not working, blown engines, rearends, fuel, cleaning, permits, oh ya insurance, would have bought a 75-100k, for good top end used, worked from there, but hey what do i know, oh ya did i mention i was a highway supervisor for 30 years now
thanks for your comment!
love All these videos seems like this is something new to a lot of drivers, I had my fist Slam bang, 10 wheeler with trlr in 1981 and weve had the supper tens in NV for the last 15 years or more, always a well known way to make steady revanew.
thanks for your comment. Yes seems like people are enjoying it!
Those 3 extra axles looks so weird compared to what we have here in Europe🤠
Love the truck. Cool video. How many trucks do you run?
Man y'all are nice. If I don't back up at a perfect 90 i get told to fix it or fuck off.
sometimes it is like that sir
Nice truck bud!
thank you!
Bro was workin in my hometown I can spot that moose lake on ramp from a mile away and London road I bet you have fun on that hopefully you didn’t have to drive on that all day
it was a nice work day up there in duluth!
Do you generally get paid tonnage or hourly when working on those large projects?
answered your questions on the live!
I love my vhd. Definitely doesn't look as clean as yours but nevertheless, it's a solid truck.
How do you get loads for a dump dropping cards off at companys or brokers or word of mouth. thinking about buying a dump trailer for my semi cuz I put a Wet Kit on it so was just Curious>?
short answer: Contractors and Brokers in your area
Nice truck, ref the 3 smaller wheels, are they on lift axles? Do you use them to reduce your axle weight? At what weight would have to use all 3?
as soon as i get loaded I have to drop my axles
Are you having any issues with the air ride? I wonder how it would do here in Seattle.
not as of yet, air ride still good!
Nice truck 👍
Thanks 👍
As an Aussie it’s so strange seeing an AM set being used. Aus has almost exclusively been UHF for at least 30yrs now.
I deliver fuel to many of construction sites, or pits, or whoever needs it. Funny watching this video , I am based out of Duluth. I have delivered diesel to veit there in that CN yard. Funny how I randomly found your video and I recognize so many of the places you were! I probably have passed by ya on the road!
probably did pass you, i saw a few fuel trucks there
I've done asphalt before. Never again. I hated it. Sand, gravel, dirt, asphalt CHUNKS I gladly did but I never wanna deal with asphalt if I ever stop driving Semi's and go back to Class B Dumpers (or dump trailer semi work).
Thats a neat looking truck, is it the 16 litre?
Greetings from Maine! Nice truck you have there. Sounds like an automatic. Is it as good with fuel mileage or better than manuel?
for dump trucking i do prefer automatic, yes the truck is auto get about 5.8-6mpg average
Great video! Are you interested in testing vehicle lighting stuff from Suparee? I mean sponsorship.
Potentially. Please send business inquires to:
inquireoleg@gmail.com
Looking forward to hear from you.
Good stuff.
I'm guessing the payment on that truck is close to $3000 a month for ten years.
What kind of weight can you haul with 4 drop axels ? When I drove a triaxle in ont we could only be 40,000kg max
about 19.5 tons
@@lifewithhelge Yes pretty close to here then ,
Man... this is a big dog.. nice truck keep it nice...
doing the best i can sir, thanks for your comment
I have a question what is the three small wheel do
sorry im going to need more of these videos
Beautiful truck....That is a huge box, how many yards?
Can you please explain why would you need the extra axles Is there roads or laws which requires you to have extra axles ??
Great question. Yes each state has its own bridge laws which effect your total legal gross vehicle weight. In Minnesota 6axles gets you the most gvw and still being able to get into city streets and all. there are also 7axle but they are rare for now
I guess transfers are a thing of the past and big boxes with pusher axles took their place, I've only heard of one fatality where someone walked between a transfer thinking it was a ten wheeler.
yikes!
Beautiful rig... nice 2 c a volvo dump truck... how long have u been trucking
thanks! 9 years
@@lifewithhelge congrats ...just luv d truck... but when u looked into this did u consider buying a petey or Kenny dump truck...
Nice rig I take this is Canada
I had a buddy with a Mack truck like that he got hit by a train I said how was it like getting hooked by a bull
where yall located ?? bc In state of Ga tri axles were banned many years ago & no more 20 ton loads of sand so how many axles are on the ground (5) when loaded ? sob good Job
Do you get paid by the load or hour? You had to sit for quite a while for the driveway project.
that specific project was paid by the load
Sucks other states can’t can’t load like we do in Michigan I haul 33 just in my lead and another 19 in the pup
that's awesome!
What's your gross weight with that truck with all them drop axles
GVW is registered at 69,000. each states has its own regulations and bridge laws
Oooohhh luxury comes in a little heavy. Maybe cut some fancy out and get 21.5 or since we’re “luxury” put an aluminum bed on there and get 23 and you won’t have to haul any big rock
thanks for the tip
Everyone commenting on costs and making money, he did say 24 Hour Shift. Working harder solves alot of problems.
agreed!
Bro what do you use to record? I’m looking forward into vlogging and recording as well
just my iphone, tripod and a clamp mount. Check out the description for the links on products i use 🙂
@@lifewithhelge thank you

How long will it take to pay for the Truck ?
not planing to pay off the truck
What do you think of the i shift?
