Yes it is, I had almost 3 yards of dirt in it this morning and it handles it with no problem.

The dirt is very wet, I have been waiting all summer to do this job but, it just kept raining. So even in a pile the dirt is still very wet.

Your dump truck is way to cool Colin, loam and crushed gravel gets a bit heavy when its wet.
Nice paint John, going to have to get caught up on your thread again
Theres a frost warning coming up for us mid week Morris but mostly dry except for today.
Got to take a day off and bum around, picked up some solid cart and trolley wheels for a future project. Want to make a sidewalk stone cart with hooks on it so that I can lift and load 6 sidewalk stones at a time onto the back of the truck.

Looks great John, I really like that colour.
I like to see old Ford/Mercury trucks working! I don`t really get a lot of use from my 56 F350 but it really puts a big smile on my face when I do.
Frost warnings for us mid week too Perry, showers and possible snow flurrys too. So far it doesn`t look like we`ll get any Indian summer, at least for a while.

There's talk about possible light snow, heavy horror frost due to humidity and light rain but nothing really serious. Might just need to cool off to warm up. Snow in the mountains, avalanches have already scored a point, got themselves a x country skier 2 weeks ago.

I don`t like even the talk any snow, light or other wise as it`s too early for me to wrap my head around that! It can snow in the mountains all it wants, just not here.

Was another nice day out here, cooled down to fast though.
Got most of the site wrapped up and only have a few details left and I'm out of there and chasing down a truck.
Thought it was monday on my way home and it still feels that way
