Ram Trucks after 3 BRUTAL years of Work
What happens here
The presenter prepares to conduct an 'extreme loading and hauling' test. He explains that he is in a remote, back-country location where Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations and road restrictions do not apply, allowing him to push the truck's limits. A Bobcat T180 skid steer is used to load a 'DIRTMONKEY' dump trailer with wet, fine-grained sand. The presenter highlights that wet sand is significantly heavier than dry sand, making it an ideal material for stress-testing the truck's towing capacity.
Goal: The presenter sets up an extreme hauling test using a 'DIRTMONKEY' dump trailer filled with extremely heavy wet sand. This test is conducted on private, back-country roads to circumvent DOT regulations and fully explore the truck's maximum load capabilities.
