Southwest Illinois | With that volume I would stay away from anything with augers. My only experience with belts is they tend to be finicky when its cold or wet. They work well and as someone said probably last forever. You can unload and trcuk or trailer over them. When we had ours(Batco) we had the flaps up and driven over a couple times so we bought a drag(chain and paddle)Sudenga. Its noisier, especially if not full, but I think it will last a long long time. We have run 500K through it with no trouble or adjustments and no visible wear. It will dump any trailer but long WB(230+") trucks with low fuel tanks will not clear it. The Sudenga was about 2500 cheaper than a new Batco. I'd be hard pressed to recommend one over the other. | |
