    Just got a text asking if it was too late to get firewood tonight?:rofl: :lol:
    He must think I have Nashville city lights in my yard and he knows I’m not 27.
    Pro tip, place your order 24hrs in advance while the sun is still out. Ffs

    Most people don't think planning ahead is important any more.

    Sure you are. You just have 30 years of experience at it. :D

    Bring in those Benjamins tomorrow.

    The descriptions I’ve heard are hardly modest

    How much can you fit on your dump truck loose thrown?

    The Nashville measure is 11.5 ricks

    I wish I could fit a full cord loose thrown. I have to stack two rows and then loose throw to fit a cord. Easier to just put my trailer on with the difference and hand unload than do any stacking.

    If I didn’t have the tall side boards I wouldn’t be able to fit a cord. 9x7x3=189 so it’s probably more like 13 ricks.

    Love to see all the Nashville comments!! Delivered 4&1/4 ricks today. Looked like the Beverly Hillbillies of firewood going done the road. So, I sell around two dozen 1/4 ricks a year or so. I only add 1/4s on when they are only a
    few miles of my delivery route. Charge $100. Doesn't move the needle much on the annual total, but nice profit margin. Don't worry, this was no Grandma trying to stay warm. Had to have her move her RangeRover Suv out of the way.

    You would be very entertained to ride along with me on my 200 mile plus four rick deliveries (wheelbarrowing and stacking it all) and see the Benjamins that it produces. Haftacut, you are just another FHC looser!

    I'll do around 100k this year as a one man band and you mock me. Explain yourself?
