    Got a call from my new buddy the landscaper. He trades BTUs for a case of beer.

    So I don't own a pickup. Its suprising how much you can load into a Ford Fusion if you only paid a $1000 bucks for it. This was load 1 of 2.

    Note the Canadian spring weather

    Nice!!
    I shot a huge buck bow hunting in the early 90's but only had a vw Jetta at the time. I put him in the trunk but couldn't close it.

    Impressive haul of wood man.

    Sedan hoarding for the win! Nice! You're a true believer, fer sure!

    Wait a minute....If you were a TRUE BLUE believer, you woulda had more wood up front and sticking out the sun roof! Consider your wood-hoarding card revoked & withheld pending an official inquiry from 'The Committee'. :rofl: :lol: :D :doh:

    Who needs a truck with a car like that? Fill the passenger seat and get a roof rack and you have yourself a real wood hauler.
