If his motto was;
"Don't worry about the Mule, Just Load the Wagon"
he probably was from down this way.

hey Eddie it's a small world isn't it? how has hauling been for you? My father has been either really busy or almost nothing. I like the dodge, you know how my ford was, more for looks with the big lift and wheels. I sold it and got this dodge to use to try to get my business started up here. Power wise the ford was way faster but it had a programmer but the cummins in this dodge is so much more torqy it tows great. Some heavy hauls have been a Deere 450J dozer, Cat 416E backhoe... Tows great.

Here's a truck I took in on an excavator trade.
What's really unique about it is the miles.
37,000 actual.:notworthy
That and being an Old Body Style Chevrolet K30 3+3 Quad Cab Dually.
It's at the detail shop right now, I'll get some more when it's done.

Yea good memory ,of course I've known you since you could barely walk .
My skid steer is pretty good, hardly using it lately ,it's only have 500 hrs ,just moving a load here and there ,you know that machine is too big most of the time to spread gravel around houses ,it is best to prep a lot to build or even clearing lots is like a small dozer ,more like a D3 on wheels, but to load my trucks on a tight place is the best , I can load a truck faster with that than a back hoe ,just have to park close to the pile ,since the bucket is a cubic yard like most back hoes ,yea I like that machine a lot .

Don't forget to latch the hood before you take off!

I just pushed it down to take a picture.
I HATED that body style truck when they first came out.
Since the Hoods opened from the inside you couldn't pop the hood and open the door with the wire from your master cylinder when you locked your keys in your truck anymore.
Course this truck has a Hydra-Boost so I doesn't matter.

i've seen a lot of ads for those things lately in our local tractor book. didn't think it would be strong enough to lift some of the logs in those pics but i am now a believer
