Would a USB thumb drive(or whatever you call them) work for transferring the information to the quad? Or do you actually have to run a program? Could you make a bootable program run from the thumb drive when it's plugged into the unit? If you could, those are fairly inexpensive($30 at Target for 128mb-maybe less) and easy to use. That would easily solve the problem of location.

So, I had a load of gravel delivered today. Wanted it spread down my driveway 2-3" thick to cover the potholes and help with the mud. Not making a new driveway, just top coating the existing one. showed the driver what I wanted covered and instead of spreading 2-3" thick, dumped about 12" thick and 30' short of the end of the area I wanted covered. Since I don't have any equipment to push that around I now get to move it by shovel and rake.
Was I expecting too much to have the driver spread it down the driveway in a straight line less than a foot deep? Should I make a complaint to Springbrook? Since I don't drive a dumptruck, I don't want to make a stink if it's something I shouldn't expect too much from. But dang, if I knew I was going to have to do all that shoveling, I wouldn't have ordered 12 yds, I would have just gotten a truckload myself and filled in the potholes. If I have to move it, then I will suck it up and do it, but thought I would see if anyone had any thoughts...Thanks for any suggestions.

LMAO.. Good times.. No its not Difficult to spread.. He just either set his chains to loose or drove to slow.. I wont get into specifics of truck driver mentality as to not offend the truck drivers [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] But i will say Most only believe there responsibility is to transport the material from point A to Point B. They dont think they need to spread.. Lazy Fockers [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I would call and raise a stink. You might be able to get em to swing by with a lil piece of equipment to remedy [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] cant hurt tryin anyway. If that dont work maybe dream up a makeshift blade for your pick up. I hate shoveling gravel. Id spend twice the time makin a tool to not have to use a shovel.
