I reckon it will if'n ya puts nuff in it and parks on ah hill!

 

"Run what cha brung"
(an old drag trip saying)

 

This was my last load a few weeks ago. Planning on getting another this weekend, wife permitting !

 

Nice looking load pql

 

This is 2 face cords in one load. Mostly oak and the moisture content is from 15-25. I might have seen some maple and ash, but mostly oak. The truck was a little overloaded Luckily I didn't have far to go. Just a couple of miles down the road. You can tell from my tires that it was a mud pit where I had to pick it up. The two young-uns and the Mrs helped. The wife did the stacking.


A couple of days before that, I picked up about a face cord and a half of ash. Will need to split it yet. Once again, the family was there to stack while I bucked. I did have to move the big trunk pieces though...

 

Even at 65 years old your kids will remember "sittin' on the wood pile in Dad's truck". Family is good!

 

Ha... Maybe.
They mostly know wood heat. Otherwise they would be used to a 62* F house! I am cheap/frugal. Once they are old enough they will be doing the splitting and final stacking. Right now they mostly schlep. Sometimes complaining, sometimes having fun.

 

Why is yalls fuel up their green?

 

last load I cut it was not a good day. Had to use the neighbors backhoe to pull me out. Tore all my back brake lines out. Wasn't a very productive day if you know what I mean :-(

 

I know green is road fuel but why is it green? State laws? Ours is just clear or amber...whatever diesel fuel is naturally.

 

Glad to see you don't cut that chevy any slack

 

Ouch, sounds like an expensive load of wood

 

Get a flare tool some bulk line and a few unions. Just a pain on the but.

 

That looks like a forrest of Locust ?, as good a place as any to hang up the truck.

 

These are a few years old. A load of big & ugly's, and a load on the racks, forwarding the logs to the official firewood processing area, hillbilly style.

 

Cottonwood for race cants!

 

I thought all road fuel was green naturally. Not sure but that's all I've ever seen. Up here they dye off road diesel red I believe - every so often the weigh stations stick tanks and that can be a hefty fine if you're running it in a tractor trailer.

 

For a long time I didn't know diesel came in anything other than red. We ran it in everything. I got pulled over by the DOT a couple times but they didn't dip my tank...and I would have sounded like an complete idiot if they did.
