    Went back today where I got the cherry and got a load of red oak. Trailer isn't fixed yet so I bucked it out there and loaded the truck. Seriously a crazy amount of wood there to get. My wife even helped stack it in the truck, I threw it in and she stacked it up!

    Nice load
    Good teamwork.
    Amazing how having help speeds things up :)

    (a small piece of plywood would be a good rear window protector ;) )

    No one makes a better work truck than Ford IMO . Im actually looking for an Old 70's Ford truck for firewood/dirt/mulch/everything hauling . Something nice and dependable..that I can work on with my fat fingers :)

    Nice load of wood. Helps on traction too. My dually has a smaller load of unseasoned Red Oak in the back and I rarely put it in 4x4. Are you going to build racks for the sides or just hold out for the trailer to get back on the road?

    When going to unload I pulled off the driveway and slid on ice. Slid down and jackknifed the trailer. Felt like a dumb*** but it happened. Ended up sliding the trailer into the back of truck. Truck dented but drive able, trailer bent the tongue:(
