    Nah, tree service next to work. I did inquire about getting some of it. The guy said he sells grapple trucks for 600$. 100% large urban yard trees. I might take a free load but defiantly not pay. The pile usually isn’t so big, they have been busy.

    With a pile of wood like that you must daydream often at work Warner? Would they let

    There's a tree service across the street from my wood storage but their wood yard is not visible from the street. I see them come and go all the time and have spoken with the owner.

    :rofl: :lol:That truck is almost 10 years old! But your right someone probly got themselves upside down financing more that it’s worth because it’s a raptor. And the 6.2 with oversized tires :faint: I have ridden in quite a few of those trucks kind like riding in a washing machine.

    Reminds me of an old commercial for some soft drink (Coke or Pepsi?) where the shirtless construction worker across the street is drinking on a hot summer day. The female office workers are drooling and can’t concentrate. Is that you? :rofl: :lol: (Can’t blame ya!)

    Lmao....know the feeling of looking longingly at an unobtainium pile of cordwood!
    Trying to figure a legal, moral, polite way to see a little of it come to my yard!
    He has provided though, a pasture to clear (im pretty much the only cutter there) and a big job coming up, the only person who got rights to cut there too.

    Jeff nice "a little accumulated".
    Thats what Im telling people around home.

    Those gen 1 raptors are thirsty when equipped with the 6.2 liter. The 5.4 liter ones are a little better on fuel.

    100% kinda hard to tell from the pic but none of this logs are under 2 foot diameter some close to 5 foot. Nothing I’d like to pay for unless the circumstances are dire.
