M813A1 Loaded

[kurt802]

I think I have about three cord of firewood loaded on this beast. I drove it from Cornish, NH to Hartland, VT. The Cummins running great all the way. Thought you all might like to see some pictures of the truck.

Cool! I love actually using these trucks. I see you are close to some RR tracks.

That is one of the cleaner looking M813s that I've seen. Nice truck!

That is a gorgeous truck.

That is a combination my dad and I both would love to have. Me I want the truck, he would want the load.

Very nice looking 5 ton.

Thanks for the compliments on the truck. It is a good one according to test results of the oil sample I sent to Blackstone. I need to install a dump kit now that my son has moved to California.

nice truck but you are on your own unloading that. one cord is 8'x4'x4'?

a very nice truck and one big load of getting warm firewood

 

[kurt802]

one cord is 128 cubic feet 8(4x4) A level load in my 5 ton is 294 cubic feet so I figure a freakin' heapin' load might be close to 3 cord, probably less once stacked. The ride was nice and smooth with a load and the Cummins had enough power but definitely had to do some downshifting up the hills.

That is a beautiful truck kurt...and will handle 20K nicely...dont ask how I know...some issues between gear 3 - 4 and yes...downshifting up hill without a good run at it...but...she will do all that is asked
