Wood truck section? I got a new wood truck

First off why is there not a dedicated wood truck section on here? We need that here!!!! So I used to have a 87 dodge 3/4 ton that was my wood / plow truck and I loved that truck!!! Do to a couple of unfortunate events back to back I was forced to sell it. Missed and regretted selling her every day! So I went out a got wood with my little Toyota pickup but it just wasn't the same and it took a ton of trips into the hills. I also love my yota but it just wasn't the same. So now two years later one hell of a epic weekend road trip to get her I now have a new wood truck! 86 1ton dually dodge with a 360 h.o. 4speed 4x4 and a flatbed. I am so excited to go fill it up! Get back that warm and fuzzy feeling when at the end of the day the saws are poking out the top of a cord and a half of doug fir piled on the back of my burly ol'truck!

 

You must've missed the 97 pages of loaded truck pics.

Loaded truck pics.

Unfortunately, your truck doesn't qualify to be posted in there as it is empty. So time to fill her up and get some photographs of her working hard. Empty truck pics just don't do it for us around here...

BTW, she's a beauty...

 

That looks like it's going to be a great truck Skip.

love them trucks, now if it had a 12v Cummins in it, it would be perfect

 

Why does it not have bud wheels on the front? Good looking truck (for a Dodge )...
Just kidding...I do like the first gen dodges.

 

Awesome! Looking forward to the first pic stuff full of future BTU's.

 

Nice truck!

We do have a truck thread here somewhere I beleive, but not a dedicated forum.

Edit I see you were linked to the loaded trucks thread...which I started years ago. Haha, I couldn't remember what it was but knew we were posting truck pics!

 

Congrats !!
That will be nice makin less trips to haul the wood home
Lookin forward seeing her loaded up with :stacke:

 

Is that smiley a new f150 or a Nissan Titan?

 

Gonna look even better with a full load
You have a place to get it fully load?
Eastern Wa has some big timber

 

Thats an awesome Dodge. Im a dodge guy myself. I have a 03 1500 that I use. I have been looking for something like that for my wood hauling, but Im just not ready to pull the trigger yet.

 

Maybe we got that since we had 2 or 3 members get new trucks. I think @chevyman got a new truck and so did @welder

 

Haven't spoken with you in awhile. How's it going Dave? We're just dealing with the remnants of Irma here!

 

Because it is a HD 250...converted to DRW with dually wheel adapters in the back I'm betting...

 

I'll play a little

Morning Wood!! Leadfarmer

You need to get some lettering on there, maybe a sheet or two of this:

To look like a fire truck.

 

Don't know about the wheels but it's not the only first gen I've seen like that!?! But I can tell ya I plan on adding bigger meats on her.

 

I actually cut outside of Potlatch Id. Some pretty nice timber up there. Only live here for about a year but where I used to live in north central Wa I had absolutely huge timber just a 10 minute drive from the house!
