    Not wood. But my Dad's 2500 Dodge w/ a Cummins hauls his camper like it's not there.

    He asked me to take it about 4 miles down the road to my place. I thought it was about 9,000#. It's more like 12,500# with water, food, and gear. Put a whoopin on my little half ton EcoDiesel.

    I need air bags if I ever tow it again. I really thought it broke or bent my frame. Found out it was just a little flex after I unhooked it.

    I feel your pain! At times I'll use my dad's 1 ton dodge diesel and the difference is quite impressive over my half ton.

    A good friend had some Ash stacked behind his house for a couple of years that he and I cut and stacked. He has a fire pit but doesn’t have a wood stove. I asked him if I could take the pile from his back yard and then he can have a never ending supply of fire pit wood as he needs it. We loaded it up today and I also took out the Christmas tree to toss in the pond for minnows this spring.

    I don’t need to engage 4 wheel drive when I have the bed loaded down.

    It was around 9 degrees or so this evening. I unloaded the Ash from my truck and tossed in nice dry wood from my wood shed. Later in the week we will load the wood into the garage. That’s where I keep it to feed the stoves.
    Unfortunately there are no pics of my evening work. It was so freakin cold my phone locked up after I tried to take a pic then shut down.

    Started out cutting a little bit on an ash top, wanted to try out the peavey pickaroon I got for Christmas more than anything. Got over carrying the wood uphill in the snow pretty quickly.

    So I changed gears and loaded up some that was already split and on flat ground and delivered it to a friend. Great day to be alive and out working! Single digit temps don't scare this wood hoarder indoors for the day.
