I mean..... I remember when I was given a two ton truck to go out and collect whole corn and bring back to the feed mill, or when I learned to drive a 66 passenger school bus and when out on the road.... not really scary, but thrilling.... driving a large machine around.... it's a great feeling to master a large machine and be in control!.... you should be proud.
It's not so much about the tailgating or not, it's not a booster because there's no tag (i.e. boost) axles in the back. Or drop axles underneath. You can tailgate a booster. My company has boosters and trailer mixers. Trailer mixers are crazy big, but pretty much obsolete because they hold 12 yrds but a booster can hold 10.5 and isn't as bulky. I'm suprised the concrete wasn't super wet in this, they kept the slump to a 5.5. Every other vid I've seen it's been way out of spec.
cool, i will be driving a cement truck soon, i have no experience at all, im a little nervous, but i heard that i will be fully trained. im praying to Gog everything wiill be ok

when the chutes are on and the driver is controlling the truck from inside the cab thats called tailgating.
Tailgatin the concrete from inside the cab.

Oh.... is that when the chute is in the front?... driver just pulls up to the site and does it all from the inside?
I've got some video of those guys, too.
