I would trade a “real” pickup for a Landcruiser truck. Ron

How many cords?

Only about 1.5. Normally get 2 cords stacked, but that's wood I hauled to the hous.

I'm not %100 up to speed on truck shopping in Australia but you can get solid axle Toyota's diesels that are just tanks, we can't because it doesn't meet emission standards. I know no plate form is perfect but I'd be buying one right now if I could get it plated here.






That can also be said about 1993 Camry owners .... Toyota has put out a recall out on them for the owners to go buy a new car already ....


Keep on .... Runnin' Loads .....

Here's my TAM 80T35. I recently made it into a flatbed and installed a slower and stronger differential from a bigger truck since I managed to destroy the original one
I load 5 to 6 cubic meters, green wood. We sell firewood in 1 meter logs or all chopped up, usually unseasoned

Testing this truck out from a buddy. Potentially will be new-to-me shortly.

White ash yard tree that came home with me.

My two, empty at the moment, wood haulers.A 97 12 valve 5 speed and a 75 GMC with a 500 cad, turbo 400 np205, gear vendors overdrive and Dana 60 front axle, 4.10's. Posi's on both ends and Firestone air bags on all four corners for the extra heavy loads. I am the second owner of both trucks.

Mountain ash. 100's of standing dead trees from Bushfires. No chance of fires the day we were cutting, cold, wet, and foggy.View attachment 662324

Mountain ash and red gum is a pretty good combo to have in your wood shed for a bit of fast and slow burning. How easy is the splitting of mountain ash? No need for noodling there. We have a fair bit of that dead up here and alpine ash also which would have to be the easiest splitting eucalypt around. Drop a round on the ground and it'll split in two as often as not.

Great pics too.

Looks like you should change your user name to “truckfun” Ron

Had a friend who has helped me out a few times lately so I asked him if he could use some wood and he said he could. So the wood fairy will be paying him a visit while he’s on vacation.

Loving the lack of squat in the 3/4 ton. But I need a headache rack!

 

[Mike Mulback]

Nice Amount there

[treebilly]

First load I’m hauling to my parents this year. Only three more to go

 

[GaTreeStumper]

And another ready to go.

 

[TurboA2]

2nd load of white oak.

 

[lknchoppers]

After my regular deliveries I picked up a load on the way out of Charlotte the other day. Some big stuff for the new splitter.

 

[flyinfinn]

Small firewood load for my S10. It may be a small truck, but at least I use it like a truck! This little truck also built a house with me!

 

[GaTreeStumper]

Just starting to get orders in.

Love them older Ford Superduty's. I'd love to have a flatbed 350. Around my area those two-tone Fords are scarce.

 

[ChoppyChoppy]

Bringing in about 600 tons over the next week or so. About 45 tons per truck.

 

[lknchoppers]

After my deliveries Sunday brought in another load to feed the new splitter. Starting to get a good inventory of oak logs and chunks now.
