Default Truck Loaded Down

I worked to load and unload this during a heat advisory where the heat index was over 110 degrees. Truck handled load like it was nothin there.

This entire tree is on that truck. Hauled it 30 miles in florida tourist traffic. It was a good chunk. But everythig was good except for brakes. Thank god for downshifting.

I would take the AZ 115 any day over the southern humidity. It is literally hard to catch your breath outside, I feel bad for you guys out in Bama. Only 105 in Dallas with 60% humidity and I stay indoors at all times.
I burned 10 acres of a wheat field parking in it like that one time. Luckily we had a disk hooked up and cut a fire break and didn’t lose anything but cut stubble. Got the cats cut off the truck the next day…. They don’t worry about the environment to much in Oklahoma apparently cuz with a farm tag that’s 100% legal.
