What is your guys thoughts on a Suitter Gravel Paver?www.suittermfg.com
My brother and I have been kicking around the idea of getting a dump truck and this paver thing would allow us to place the rock without hauling other machines to the job site
Just curious if this would give us an advantage to other operators in our area or still not worth it?

It depends on how much material. If you are spreading more than 1 truck, the spreaders are a bit inefficient. Imo, spreaders are good for AC patches and driveways. Small jobs.

If you are looking at larger jobs, a skidsteer, skip loader, or a blade is much more efficient.
