Wood Hauler Pics

[zogger]

My first post - I'm a newbie here... love the site!


Load of slabwood ("cants") from local amish pallet shop last weekend. Mostly small stuff, but cost $30 for the whole load (truck and trailer full). Trailer is 14,000# gross, it was almost maxed out. Using the cutting racks, I had it all cut to boiler length in a 4-5 hours. It was all a little thin, but mostly ash and other hard woods. I've been burning in an insert fireplace for 10 years, first year with the boiler and I was afraid I may be a little shy on wood, this was a quick and easy way for me to get a little reserve on hand incase the boiler is hungry this winter

Man, at 30 clams a load like that, get ahead!

The "new" hauler. 1994 F150 from down south. If it was from here, it would be full of rust after 21 years of winter salt. I have to fix a few things but it runs good and gets me down the road. It has the 4.9L inline 6 with auto transmission. It's not a fancy new truck like some of you have, but I plan to use this as a truck. It will be scratched and dented and pushed to its limits.

Here is a quick pic of our wood hauler. Late 50's Oliver 550 with a custom wagon. Not currently holding wood, but usually it is stacked high with 2 rows of 28"blocks

I know I'm bringing this thread back from the brink, but since I just joined up I figured I would post my haulers. i use an m274 military mule for around the house, and a 2006 power wagon for fetching

Where can I get one, that's cool. Nice clean operation, that would keep my wife happy, Joe.

I also have a 06 Power Wagon. Nice truck. Those mules are pretty cool.

I love the mule, 4wd and 4 wheel steer. It is great except on side slopes, then it gets hairy.

Here's the best deal I could find on one. Looks like a cool vehicle.

Cool pic. Keeping the operation "Small Scale". You need a cab with heat and air on that tractor. Very nice, Joe.

Shoot I'd be happy to have heat and air on the skidder... and a door on the cab (got ripped off by another owner)

Nice trailer! I’m case you don’t know, that is a Converto airborne dump trailer. It is a WWII trailer and they bring good money as they are much rarer than the regular 1/4 tin Jeep trailers.
