    Youre having a field day with that pile! I would be too! Is it all oak?

    Yes sir I am. It's mostly Red oak and White oak with a few Hickory and Cherry and a couple of Post oaks.

    Is that pretty much the weight limit for a load? My BIL used to load that way and I always wondered why but never asked.

    Yes. Actually feels kinda heavy for the trailer. Only reason I'm loading this way is because I'm going over some rough roads. Keeps em from rolling around.

    I'm no production operator, but I do pretty good. Being the mechanic I always tell people I can drive anything but I'm not an operator
