    I don't know. That looks like a lot more than half a cord.

    The price is for an 8ft pickup load, not the whole pile

    Well, it says it's for an 8-foot BOX truck, so I'm guessing that's the interior height (or width) of the box truck? Some people call them a cube truck.

    I think hes referring to an 8ft pickup bed. Lots of people use the term "box", short box, long box, etc

    Around here, this is what we call a box truck. I guess one of us should contact the seller for clarification. :D boxtruck.jpg

    Looks like its the buyers own truck full? Manitoba Maple is campfire wood at best.:MM: :yes:

    'Cut this summer and split Manitoba maple firewood for sale $200.00 8 ft box truck load
    No delivery price not negotiable'

    Looks like he 'might' loan the buyer his wheelborrow to fill the truck which is probably gonna havta be parked out front.:dancer::rofl: :lol:

    No reply to my entirely reasonable questions, and he pulled the ad. Oh, well. Here's the message I sent him yesterday:

    When you state "box truck," are you talking about a standard 8-foot-bed pickup? If so, would that be a heaping load, or a level load?

    Funny thread! The language was definitely unclear. The term box truck is what Claremoron posted in the pick. I know we talk about pickups as having a box also known as being the bed. We could also consider a stake body as being the truck in question BUT, we may never know. It's a mystery.
