    Back in the 80s or 90s my truck even had a chrome roll bar with KC Daylighters! That was before I had it. I only know hat because the guy I bought it from told me so and I see the holes in the bed from it.

    I picked up two thirds of this load from someone in town that I met on a different forum, then I took a ride down the road to where Asplundh has been working and picked up what's closer to the tailgate to round out the load. Got to play with my new splitter too. 20180331_133432.jpg 20180331_152313.jpg

    On of my wood helpers and I went for a snowgo hoarding. Just over the top of the wood you can see the Tanana river ice road. B50755E4-D0DC-460C-B15D-71150879A81B.jpeg 965D6763-C53E-465B-9B15-0DA3E37B5849.jpeg 04391FDF-8E46-4CC2-9A8B-A7FAC9597854.jpeg

    Not much of a load but they underestimated how much I can take. 20180405_113359.jpg 20180405_113411.jpg 20180405_113416.jpg

    Helped a neighbor a few houses down. I need to get back on my game-this march was the first time I had to buy oil in 4 years and it was painful to make that call.

    20180414_151324.jpg The top broke out of an EAB killed ash over the winter. Exactly one truckful once it was cut up.

    Gonna go back and drop the trunk for her next week then buck and haul it out.

    Thanks! I really have to pack it in to make trips worthwhile in it.

    I was a kid in it's heyday, carried a fall guy replica toy truck with me everywhere I went. Almost 10yrs ago, mom somehow found a new old stock of that same truck still in the packaging with a Montgomery Wards price tag on it and gave it to me for a birthday. Like a hotwheels except it was Ertyl(?). Best b-day gift ever.

    Anyways, those old shows are best left in the 80's, have gone back and tried to watch them. Was something only a 6yr old could enjoy. The theme song is still badass though.

    Got the last of the rounds from my previous load split up, now they're in the stacks and seasoning. Pretty significant volume difference in loose splits vs neatly stacked.[​IMG][​IMG]

    Load one this morning
    20180421_104053.jpg
    Then load 2
    20180421_123219.jpg
    Works out well using the half ton for this, I don't get as worn out loading each time and get a break driving them across town to the stacks

    Those aren't even full loads? Probably could put most of that on one trip!

    Doesn't take too much oak to squat a half ton, and I'm not much for overloading
