Got wood

That's a load!

How much weight you think you have there?

We cut wood to heat and sell the extra for a little extra cash, and I believe in teaching my 3 boys the value of HARD work. They have asked to fill the Deuce up with wood, but noone wants to buy a Deuce load. We sell by the pickup truck load.

The pickup is full of wood and ready to deliver. The tarp behind the trucks covers a lot of wood.

RE: Got wood

A respectable load. Cutting wood is a respectable job for young men. It will teach them respect and the benifits of having good equipment.

RE: Got wood

Ok, how many cords of wood fit in a Deuce when it is stacked evenly to the top of the troop seat/sideracks?

RE: Got wood

about 2 1/2 to 3 cords roughly. We also filled our truck up with wood about a year ago and it is alot of wood. It gave us a stack pile of 32 feet long and 5 feet high. Still had some left over.

HA!! i have a central boiler wood stove and i heat mine and the neighbors house with it. (2 men slaved to same stove a real good deal) we burned 10 loads like that last year. the problem was we had to burn green wood so we hauled about 40% more than if it was cured

I used to sell firewood also ans would load two cords into my duece. Worked out pretty well. Looks like you got 2 1/2 cords or more. You can also get large logs lifted into back to cut and split.
