Nice looking truck! If you had a problem moving that, I'd be very worried.

The Cat 303.5 is 9k and with a cab it's 10k so yeah, they're a bit heavier than they look. Not overloaded by any means buts still a good amount. Nice pickup by the way.

I hate those machines on the job site. I've seen a couple good labourers out dig those things by hand.

Thanks for the compliments. Yes that is my trailer. I traded a golf cart I had 1300.00 in for it brand new. They were asking 3500 and they delivered it to my house

I had to dig a grave for one of our horses he was 35. I also dug over 250 of trench to put some water lines in. I put 6.5 hours on the meter. I aint seen no mexican dig like that.

Looks like u might want to put a different hitch in your truck because the jack on the trailer is really close to the ground .
