Nice rack!

These days my wood truck is a 1500, so I don't have any sideboards. I broke down last fall and bought a semi-load of pulp wood and had it dumped in the sagebrush on the other side of our land. So my firewood haul is about a quarter mile each way. I stihl have my professional saw, so at 66 I can cut and load what amounts to basically a level full load (minus the saw box and spare tire) and bring it back to the yard and unload it in a little more than an hour - but then I'm done with it for the day

Most of these logs are green and some of the round blocks I can barely pick up and set in the truck!
