Only had it a couple weeks and I'm hooked

So, got a few things dialed in and a buddy needed a hand hauling some logs for live edge slabs. First run on the hyw. Cruised up to a Seattle university and hauled 2 trips of 128 year old elm, and maple trees.

130miles over all

A little slow on the hills regardless if it's loaded or not. Over all very happy. The big section was 10,200lbs, Of the three

Did that come as a dump truck or did you convert it?

M1090 factory dump. Going to see if I can pull numbers on the ram to see what it's rated for. Raised that without any problem.

Wow, that thing doesn't squat at all with that kind of weight.

Measured before and after and it came out to be about 7" of squat. Which didn't seem like much.

For so much weight and hardly any sag, that is impressive. What is the wood going to be used for? I bet that is some expensive cargo.

Elm + maple $
Better ask all around before burning it $$

I love to tease my friends that if their "light duty" pickups can't handle it, I'll go get my "medium duty" truck.

It's going to continue its life in other finished forms for many more years to come.
