Tried to do some logging yesterday. It wasn't much of a success. Truck driver parked it completely in the way and the skidder ran out of fuel... You just can't hire good help these days...

I dusted off old 115 today and hauled some logs. My wife and I were out in the woods yesterday and saw a couple of off highway trucks hauling wood so I guess that's what got me motivated. The load on the truck is roughly 80lbs plus the 46lbs of truck and trailer. It hauled it like a champ and I think, looked good doing it.














The tires get just the right amount of squish!



Videos are coming.

Videos from yesterday... This truck is so big that it needs every inch of the road. If you screw up you don't make the turns much like on the real logging roads.
