    I didn’t think the bags would lift high enough. I imagine having 2 good hydraulic cylinders would probably make your life a little easier.

    I’m having the same issue. Just pieced together a good little run down thru NC then over to Tn then back up to Pa and end up down in Va. Thursday. Getting phone calls to run over the weekend. My response is “give me something worth running I’ll run! I ain’t riding around for free when I can be home having fun with the family.” Thinking maybe we’ll go stretch a line in the a.m. see if we can put a Bass or 3 on the line. Also think our dragon is gonna get a bigger cage this weekend. How thrilled I look when they offer up cheap freight… E79DE7F0-4CEF-4EB3-BD35-358CF2CACC3E.jpeg

    Dang, for that kinda money I could of fed ya all week.
    Go down to the root cellar and get some potato's and onions. Cheese rolls are 2nd step up, yellow on the right, white cheeses on the left, all labeled pick what you want. Eggs are in the hen house. Watch that #### rooster, he thinks he is all that. I will go out to the pork freezer and get some sausage and bacon. Oh. Gonna need some butter. Not a dime spent, unless you kill that rooster.

    I have folks show up in need. They need to be able to walk away with a weeks groceries now instead of not having enough gas to get to town and to embarrassed to ask. Bring your grocery bags, I will fill them up.

    I've seen some of the new fancy ones do, just hook to batteries and go.

    Now I've seen and used one with a hydraulic manual cylinder.

    Just like a engine crane and you will wear your arms off.

    Think I’m gonna be reminded today that a 48’ stepdeck ain’t quite equal to a 48’ flatbed
