Thanks for the welcome. That picture is just out the front of my place down at the end of Rawhiti Rd, in front of the reservoir. You probably haven't been passed yet as my front yard is a bit of a giveaway.

Works good for me , I have a fireplace and only use it during the evening so I can load it up and put it next to the front porch and it'll last a couple of days.

Well, since I started this thread a few years ago, I figured I'd update it with my new woodhauler 
Sadly, my beloved Bronco is on its way out, so it had to be replaced. I picked up this 1990 W250 locally. 238K miles, 360, 4 speed manual. Extended cab and 8 ft bed (Yeah, the turning radius is as bad as you think). Everything works except for the windshield wipers
Here it is:
I need to get some wood to move around to test it out

....until i get a truck and or trailer, it's me and a wheelbarrow...i have been very fortunate to have a tree service drop some loads, and some some neighbors willing to share some the trees that they've had removed....so all of these pics of trucks and trailers and loaders look good to me....that dumptruck picked up in htfd ( west of the river) looks sweet too

....not if you are my mad hungarian neighbor(which is the actual name he goes by,the mad hungarian) who is pushing 90,has questionable eyesight, and drives a mini-van with windows completely tinted dark black....things hit so far: garbage pails, outdoor woodstove, gardenwall, rose bush, and many assorted logs/chunks of wood....and that is just my backyard......Hah, turning radius, that is what reverse is for

....isn't that that guitarist's band who played in MR. BUNGLE? I have to chek that out, been wanting to.....also Estradaspere, SECRET CHIEFS 3.....and many more i'm sure...I love most of what i've heard from that guy....Trey Spruance i think his name is....Nope, i'm thinking of someone else.....But, someone did recomend checking SPOCK'S BEARD out recently...

Spock's Beard is known for a lot of things (virtuoso prog rock), but their guitarist isn't one of them. I prefer their first half dozen (with Neal Morse) albums... never got into the later (Nick D'Virgilio) stuff. Check out the aforementioned album, or "V".

From context I assume that is a band...but is it a cult band or really old or new??? I mean I have heard of most of the old guys but this one seems like maybe I had heard of it before but the more I think about it I think no I havent?
