We Didn't Hold Back on This 1-Ton 552 HP Truck Build

What happens here

Timmy discusses the Southland dump trailer, describing it as the 'Swiss Army knife of trailers' due to its versatility for hauling equipment, rock, and other materials. A key feature is its 'Engineered Sill Design,' which mimics the robust body composition of full-sized dump trucks, ensuring durability and preventing issues with floor integrity commonly found in other trailers. The paint process is also highlighted: it uses the same method as pickup trucks, not powder-coating, making it more resilient and allowing for color-matching to any truck. This design ensures that the trailer is not only strong but also provides a smooth towing experience, often making the driver forget it's even there.

Goal: Explain the robust design and advantages of the Southland dump trailer.

What they say

Hide

Uh Tim can explain the dump trailer. Yeah, well, we just wanted to pair this truck with a dump trailer. They're the Swiss Army knife of trailers. So, you can use these things for hauling your equipment around and hauling all your rock and materials that you need to get the job done. So, figured it'd be the perfect setup with this truck to >> But, but the Southland dump trailer is no ordinary dump trailer. Let's get very straight why we picked the Southland dump trailer because the Southland dump trailer has the exact same body composition of our dump truck. So, when we flip the bed up and you look at the undercarriage of this We've got a whole video on this alone, you guys. Just so if you wanted to see what they do different. But, one of the things that these Southland guys There's a couple things that they do that's absolutely insanely different. How they configure the bed of this truck is of this dump truck this dump trailer is exactly like a dump truck with two rails that go down a Can we want to show you that? And the paint, some of you guys have said, "Oh, we don't like the paint on the Southland trailer." The paint process that they use on the Southland [music] dump trailer is exactly the same paint process that they use on pickup trucks. It's not a powder coat, it's an actually they can color match these things to any truck you want. Now, as we we look underneath here, this is the important thing. And again, we're going to cover this in a full video that's coming out, you guys. But you see this engineered seal design? Southland is the one that does this better than anybody else. So, when you look down here, you don't have these beams running this way, and then your floor looks like a wash bed. You've got an engineered seal design there, and then when you actually look underneath, you can see where the hoist connects into the engineered seal design. So, there's other companies now that are starting to duplicate what Southland is doing. You know what? If it ain't broke, don't fix it, right? So, other companies are seeing, "Hey, Southland's got this dialed in. We're going to do the exact same thing." But they're not doing this. So, they're finding that their floors are having problems where Southland does not have those problems. So, Southland to me is ahead of the game, and Southland is the trailer system that you run on a day-to-day basis. Yep, and then we've had it for years now, and yeah, holds up great. Haven't had a problem with it. It was…
