Well,
in it's defense the pink Volvo (name of the color was Coral BTW), was very loaded inside.
F ing 18 wheeled Caddy it was. VERY comfortable and fast as hell!
This truck is equipped quite nice for day trips - it would do the job with less.

Lots of hoppers here too. One of those would not work for the stuff I haul though.
It's a corn byproduct leftover from ethanol production, it's kind of a moist ground granular stuff.
Need the conveyor to get the stuff out of the truck. Feed lots mix it with hay & other stuff to make feed.
One place has gotten 46,000 lbs a day everyday this week. That is where I had just left when I took the pic.
I have a run there tomorrow too.
We have 1 other conveyer trailer, the other is newer & different though, they actually look a little like a side dump.

There are very few hopper bottoms here. the coveyer trailer is king here. potatoes and sugar beets dont work well in hoppers. the cattle like the wilson trailer:)
