12 miles up a single track, switchback logging road. Try backing up for 12 miles. Quickly.
Delivering 20 yards of asphalt into a location where your tri-axle trailer could not do so. Think someone's new 10 foot wide driveway from the street to their house. No room for off tracking of a trailer.
Anywhere a 10 wheel dump truck can go, you can take a transfer and deliver twice as much material.

Mackman was referring to a triaxle straight dump truck.
