3/4 gravel loaded with a Komatsu pc400, delivered. loading firewood with a Hitachi Ex100 excavator 1987 Ford f800 dump truck Music: Fringe, Topher Mohr and Alex Elena
i have watched a number of Andrew's videos now. Andrew seems like a pretty quirky (and maybe a little nutty) guy. HOWEVER, there are few videos on youtube that show how a very down to earth guy with a lot of motivation and energy with a good old fashioned "work ethic" can be very successful in construction work. i love the fact that Andrew doesn't have brand new fancy equipment and his dodge pickup is REALLY what a "work truck looks like. AND - it is very clear that Andrew does know what he's doing when he's repairing roads and building "bridges." it is also clear that he has a lot of experience on his equipment. some of the stuff he does is probably not exactly "OSHA" SOP but he gets the job done! finally, his use of the drone to show his progress and completed work is very interesting. of all the hundreds of these types of videos on youtube, i have become a bit of a "fan" of "Mr. Camarata.
I never thought watching gravel being delivered can be more fun than netflix reality shows. I guess it's something about your work ethics that's so addictive watching.
See to the new viewer they might of thought Andrew was lucky with the drift but more more experienced viewers know that he has everything under control, some say he even controls the weather and the rotation of this earth
@3:54 that downhill drifting in the snow in that huge dumptruck was Crazy Impressive... Thought you were gonna tailwhip into that tree sheesh! Happy Holidays ❄⛄🎅🎄!
At 4:00 coming down the ice covered mountain and avoiding curving into the tree was really a great job driving that big dump truck. Reminds me of driving a dump truck, really fun!
Wish you had a camera in the cab for that slide. I can only imagine how fast your hands were working that steering wheel and how hard you were clenching your teeth! Glad you’re safe!
I have heard off-road articulate dumps run exhaust into the dump bed rails to keep dirt from freezing into the bed, wonder if it would work for a street dump truck too. Good job, your what a free man lives like.
Andrew camarata is the new DK (drift King) a man knows his machines how they preform their limits and capable of Andrew did ur ass go a bit when u slip excellent control BTW an the tree at the end I thought u was gonna hit it then u flicked it the opposite was in a split second 👍 👊
Aloha Andrew, You're the hardest working man I've seen on youtube. You are an inspiration to the entrepreneurial spirt. If I could afford to buy you a vacation to Hawaii I would!
Dat drift doe... Dude, I think I spotted an old diesel Benz when you were dropping off that gravel, you should try to get that for a payment, I'm sure it has the OM617 in it, you could drive that thing for almost free with waste oil for fuel! Also, pretty nice that the quarry lets you load, probably saves them time anyways, right?
Yeah, that's why I set the camera up there, The quarry was loading it. When I was little we had a 5 cylinder diesel Mercedes like that. Couldn't go anywhere in the snow.
When I saw the Hitachi start up and move forward, I thought, " Oh Boy, he's not trying that downhill slide with THIS, is he ?" Merry Christmas Andrew, and all the best of Good Wishes for a SAFE and Healthy New Year!
Was right there with you yesterday, 10°F, chained up in my IH 2554 single axle, trying to get a load of crushed rock into a cell tower site. Barely got the load to slide out once I got there, froze to the bed. Hate it when that happens.
Everyone has already said that, but I'm gonna say it on e more time : I've never seen someone crazy enough to deliberately drift this kind of heavy machinery.
9:30 Volvo 240 ❤️ Get a 940 turbo engine for that thing, soup it up a bit and you be having a great time running 10's reliably every day 👍 Just look at the swedes
how can you load full logs in your dump like that and not be ticketed? (yes im in a different state/ city area which make a difference) but holy crap man i would kill to be able to be hauling like that.
