Wood truck section? I got a new wood truck

Nice! I love north idaho, thats a beastly dodge you got it will haul a big load back to potlatch, or princeton or all the way to boise.

 

Some of us not only have wood trucks but wood trailers too.

 

My truck counts, right?

 

That pic still is amazing to me. How perfect those logs are.

 

Probably never haul anything...................except me.

 

Yep they do grow tall and straight. I found a new cutting area this year so when I return next summer I will have a good spot for some good size beetle kill again.

 

What happened I thought you had the old first or second gen cummins? Oh wait didn't you get rid of that recently? I think that was you and that makes sense with this new truck.

That's a nice wood truck!!

 

Regretfully sold the 2nd gen I had, did not trust it for a long vacation we have planned. Picked this up for that trip for towing/reliability/comfort.
Planning a 9 month trip following the NHRA circuit next year, wife loves racing. 2nd gens have their quirks and 9 months on the road I am sure some would come out.

 

Every time I see a pic from Mag Craft's place........
You prolly don't ever use or need reverse do ya! That is the biggest "wide open" country (that's not desert) that I've ever seen.
How far do you have to go to get your load?

 

That was 100 miles one way.

 

100 miles one way.

Wife just showed me a pile of storm wood that was cut and stacked and it asked you to go get it and if you got it all they would throw in $100. It was 75 miles one way and I am not even considering it!!! All oak too. Bit I kind of gave it a second thought?

 

Well kicked off the firewood season this week with the new trailer. Works good, but could have put another half cord on this ended up being only 1. I was conservative on the first go around.
Trailer has tandem 5200# axels, cross members on 12" centers, Heavy duty split gates W/spring assist and knee bracing.











Next on wish list?

 

That is a nice wood truck. These old machines are great. I don't own a wood truck and I have missed out on free wood because of it.

 

One word...trailer.

 

Put it in the trunk and seats. I think we have plenty of pics on here somewhere showing that! Haha

 

I hauled up a couple of loads on the tractor carriers yesterday and I was thinking again that I really need a trailer for the tractor instead. The only road machine I have is the Buick LeSabre. It has a class A hitch but I got a conversion hitch for it. I am not sure I should try pulling much with the four speed automatic.
The money I was going to use to buy the trailer went into repairing the transmission on the Buick so I don't have any funds to put to a trailer now. I was looking out for a good used trailer.
