Probably $350 deductible on the insurance.burntime said:That is what I call a 329 dollar load of wood...

pile o’ wood said:Yeah, without some form of protection I wouldnt go any higher than the bedwalls. And in that case I only toss a small pile in then hop in and stack it tight in rows. That gives you max capacity and minimizes accidentally chucking wood where it shouldnt go. But I dont like to be limited in capacity that much so built one of these... think it turned out well and already used it a bunch. Heaped slightly I stack taller than the cab. I think my calc made it around 1.1 cord. Ended up costing me a little more than I wanted (mainly the chain gate for the back) but it was well worth it.

Glass breakage is under the "comprehensive" coverage on an auto policy. Usually no deductible and they send out one of those mobile rigs and the guy changes it at your house or where ya work.

Interesting. I have never had an agent even mention a deductible for comp. I have five hundred deductible on collision but each car is only twenty-five bucks a year for comp and no deductible.
Due to garage clearences at work I didnt want to go over the cab, and I didnt want the spacing to big between the rails using 2x6's so it worked out a couple inches less cab height. I was going to make a bolt on rack across the top that I could put on that would be a few inches taller if I need to take ladders or something long, canoe/kayak etc. The only way I struggle with filling the whole 1.1 cord is the very last row, there is a gap between the 4th row and the tailgate (I usually try and cut 20") so not quite enough to get a 5th row. I stack sideways in bottom or vertical to get a bit above the tailgate but I dont like stacking stuff where the only thing holding it in is my chain gate since I'm sure some peices could wiggle through - the holes arent really small. but heaping up usually makes up for the last row above the tailgate.NATE379 said:I have the same in my truck but I have my stake bed rails about 6" or so over the top of the cab. Even with heaping stacks it's only about 1 cord. I did get 1.25 cords in it once but it looked like the Beverly Hillbilys going down the road.

NATE379 said:See I fit 5 rows and that gives me 1 cord. If I stack the rows really high and run about 1/2 a 6th row I can get the extra .25 cord. The 6th row overhangs the bed a little bit though.
I cut my the normal 16" length though. How do you measure a cord with 20" logs?
