driveway, gravel vs millings?

One of my neighbors bought 25 tons (semi end-dump) load of millings for a driveway I maintain for him. He drives the semi end-dump, so delivery was "free".

He got it much cheaper than what you would pay for the AB-3 (1.5" down to fines) road gravel we normally used on his drive, but one of the problems was that it was full of large clumps that made it a mess to spread and grade.

It packed pretty nicely with the petroleum content, but we have noticed that it washes out in heavy rains a lot worse than AB-3.

I stick with AB-3 for my driveway.
