With this one, yes, but it’s funny you say that, cause the other day, I was cutting down a small tree and I looked at the truck and thought to myself, I’m pretty sure it’ll miss. Went ahead and cut the tree down. Truck bed held the small trunk up nicely while I bucked it
I must have grabbed close to 10 cherry trees last summer. Standing dead/diseased but no where near the size of this one!
Yup. Dropped, cut, loaded, hauled, unloaded and stacked all within a couple of hours. No need to put the work off because it sorta looks like rain, or the road was muddy, or the chain should really be sharpened.
Kinda hard to tell with that truck isn't it? Sorry Haftacut , I couldn't pass that one up. Someday I'll post a pic of my wood hauler. It's affectionately nicknamed the turd.
Haftacut amateur cutter Around last spring early summer, I found a nice standing dead (notice a pattern here?) maple that wasn't too far from the road. Just before I started in on it, 99 lbs asks "Don't you think you should move the Jeep and trailer?" Naw....it should be alright. Look around a bit more and then change my mind. "What're ya doing?" she asks. I think I'll move the jeep and trailer. Yeah, some of the upper limbs burst once the tree hit the ground and bounced to where the wrangler was parked.
I have some experience felling trees, not expert level, but proficient. I will never leave my truck, tractor or any equipment anywhere near the area. I may be "that good"most times, but I'll never bet on it.
Can’t say I blame ya nothing makes a better wood hauler than a turd, in my opinion. Fell small tree across bed? Sure, why not. Can I make this split to the truck? Let’s find out. Will this split stay in the bed or bounce through the back window? Let’s see! ( I did that one this past fall) Mine is a turd and my next one will be as well!
I’m no pro either and never take chances with something n that’ll actually do damage. Well, significant damage at least
If my lower back weren’t in the condition it’s in- I’d pick up one of those cherry rounds and throw it at.... Oh never mind.
Well, ya had to ask. 1989 f250 7.3 idi diesel. Came from Idaho. Not rusty, but it's been pinged of every fence post in three counties by someone. Biege with brown. My other mechanic says it looks like a streak of chit going down the road.. 128k original miles though.
I couldn’t help myself and the ground froze up good overnight so I ran and got the rest of the big ole cherry after work this morning.
