I imagine, at 1150 lb-ft of torque it might move Providence, RI....

This a fully functional Ram 2500 that hauls 30+ ft-long horse trailers
regularly.

To be honest though, I don't think 8 cubic yards of gravel would fit in the
bed - though you can bet your ass that it'll haul that much weight behind it
with *zero* problems.
