Toyota Dyna - Big enough?

[woodland]

I own a Toyota Dyna, it's a great truck and looks fantastic, I get on 3 builders bags delivered loose.

great little truck bomb proof loads of them on the road in Ireland, but under no circumstances leave the road cause they will get stuck on a cow sh..t:001_tongue:

That's true, they are no good in wet/snow

won't a ranger or a one of them old mitzi l200s? They are narrower than a transit and great if you have to go off road. One thind about the dinas and cabstars is if theres a bump to be had you'll take a battering. Where as the factory pickups have that nice long bonnet and nose you could wreck and replace.

I haven't really considered what would take a crash best:-) I'm not intending to crash it really:-)

 

An L200 pickup won't carry enough. I want to be able to fit 3 loads at 1.2 cube a load.

 

I'll take a look at the differences in payload between the Dynas and the Cabstar and see if there is any difference.

So fahrenheit, it looks like its taking off for you. I've asked all the farmers like you did, round where I live like you suggested, and they all said no. Either no room, which doesn't seam entirely true, or the barns have cows in them. I've dropped on a few ton of soft wood if I can get hold of the people sorting it, but its nothing special, not like the league you are in, it would be a branch in the forest compared to your swag.

I'm actually not storing or processing any at the moment so i have put the barn on hold at my mates farm. I'm buying wood processed and seasoned at £55 a cube and selling at £110 a cube. I can do 6 deliveries on a Saturday before lunch time so not a bad wage for half a days work. Once i've got some money behind me i'll look at a firewood processor and buying cordwood but until then i'm happy with the current setup.
