ThaddeusW Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 A youtube member sent me a link to a video of him unloading sand from his Australian Superliner tipper and quad dog trailer. Apparently That combination is very popular in both Australia and New Zealand. I like how he gets it all done in one shot. Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog!

Underdog Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 That is amazing to watch! I often wonder why combos like that do not see more use in the states. More manuverable and productive IMHO. The standard semi seems outdated to me, along with antiquated axle and bridge laws.

HeyCharger Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 It is quite common to see these parked overnight at the drivers home in the configuration of when the truck is tipping.ie the trailer is parked parallel (but facing the opposite direction) to the truck.Looks all tight and cosy.
