Thought you guys might enjoy some photos of my 1078 getting used.

Hauled 10k lbs of firewood out of 3' of soft snow... Gotta love CTIS!

The truck handles 10k grand in the bed beautifully. did 50 miles at hwy speed, truck settled in and made it happen. Scale weight was 27k with three adults and an evenly distributed load, with both axles nearly perfect 50/50 weight distribution.

Very happy with my truck!

And I complain about the work involved with piling tree trimmings onto my 5x8 trailer which is 1 foot off the ground.

I saw the thread title, and thought "Some dude drove his truck to the office." Wow, some office you've got there!! Nice pics - THAT's how to take a truck to work!!

Any pics of you driving through 3' of snow? love seeing adventure pics.
For some reason my photographer didnt want to get out and sink in to her waist, though I did ask! :)

Long way up to be hefting those rounds. Just be glad it was red fir and not oak :)
Wasnt too bad, the wood doesnt have much moisture content in the winter.

Very nice!

Digging the modern tarp you got too.
Thanks! I didnt realize my tarp was different than others!

Well, Gringeltaube the moderator has threatened to ban me for using PDX as my location, instead of PORTLAND OREGON.

My deepest apologies for all the good folks I have hurt and offended! I will change my ways immediately.
