Cut Split Stack Burn
Don’t worry, wife’s older sisters Hubby was helping me split today. I told him about it and he said we can hide it at his place. He’s my partner in crime when it comes to firewood...
I would love to have that trailer! I need to haul several loads of class 5 next summer.No wood but lots of gravel View attachment 788698
Im thinking of getting a new goose neck dump next spring . Something like this. Going to keep this one for firewood and small stuff. Tired of multiple trips to the quarryView attachment 788792
5th wheel is more complicated in regards to the mount in the truck. Good if you only use it as a tow vehicle. But I use the bed for lots .Yes, those are very handy to have. Have you thought about getting a 5th wheel version? The reason I bring that up is goosenecks couplers don’t take upwards abuse well which a dum trail will do.
So giggle for the day, I went to stir my boiler last night and dropped my rake/stirry thing from 6in up onto concrete.... snapping it in half !!! Ha ha it’s 1/2in rod, yes it failed at the lil hole through it, but that just shows, even steel agree’s.... it’s too cold.

I know what you were talking about I had a 5th wheel RV. Just a pain getting the reciever in and out since I use the bed.
Ya I'm aware of the regs . I'll most likely get a 16k this way I'm under the 26k regulation. I posted the picture of the 20k for reference.View attachment 788868 SS396, be careful just how big you go. I got a pal just bought one and now he needs to go get a license......

Lots of ways around the DOT I can de-rate my truck to pay less on the registration . But if you get caught over the stated gvrw it's a big fine. Both of my old c20 Chevy's are de-rated so I could put passenger plates on them instead of commercial.Most manufacturers will de-rate their trailers if you want. You can get a 20K trailer for the heavier axles but have them rate it for 16K so you can stay under CDL.
P.S. A dealer can get this done for you if you buy a trailer off the lot, so long as it is new.
You need a bigger truck dude. I'm going to the place you posted from craigslist free fire wood in Middletown tomorrow. Just taking the truck and saws . Need to see how many weekend warriors are going to be there. Dont want to be around guys felling trees that shouldn't even own a sawTonight’s loads out of my new honey hole
