Yes...I'm dragging the "log" with our Deuce. It was larger than our '05 Dodge Ram diesel quad cab longbed : )

It has front brakes now..sufficient for field work, at least until I figure out how to get it off the ground to pull the left center set of wheels to replace a wheel cylinder.

And Pwnzor? Just because we can.... : )

I love the plume of _________ smoke as you are cranking on it! What fuel do you have in it.....water and chicken fat?



That log will do well for a parking brake also!

Vern - the best part was what I didn't get pictures of... After Joe "dropped" the tree off the only way out was to cut a new path through the woods. Joe did this while backing the duece up and not getting stuck. Fairly impressive considering... ; )

There should be a way to lock the trunnion. Then, you just drive the other wheel up on some lumber. Place more lumber under the rea-end and enjoy.

Vern - it's running a mix of on-road diesel, probably some leftover unleaded and some chainsaw mix from last season...and an oil change from my Cub Cadet riding mower as well as one from our New Holland tractor.

And citronella from our tiki torches - to keep the bugs away : )

I LOVE me a multifuel!! And in the picture, I was in first gear, front axle engaged for 6x6, transfer case in low range, no clutch at all, and about 2200rpm / damn near WOT. She's a pullin' BEAST!!! (of course, you could walk alongside faster than we were moving...but that's not the point).

Redneck is a derogatory slang term to refer to poor white farmers in the United States.

Just like the words Gay, Geek, and Spam, the meaning of Redneck has changed over time. Now it rarely if ever is used to refer to poor white farmers.

...and I'm always the derogatory type.

Anyone who knows me - and that's quite a few folks here on the board - know nothing could be further from the truth.

I apologize if the title offended anyone...it was a "Foxworthy moment". That's all.

the term redneck actually came about during a coal mining strike in West Virgina somewhere around 1900 or so, the union sent in a group of thugs who all wore red bandanas around their necks so as to be able to know who was who and they would rough up all the striking miners...so all the strikers would send word to the strikers at the next mine to watch out for the gang of rednecks.

I found this as well:

The United Mine Workers of America (UMW) and rival miners' unions appropriated both the term redneck and its literal manifestation, the red bandana, in order to build multiracial unions of white, black, and immigrant miners in the strike-ridden coalfields of northern and central Appalachia between 1912 and 1936. The origin of redneck to mean "a union man" or "a striker" remain uncertain, but according to linguist David W. Maurer, the former definition of the word probably dates at least to the second decade of the twentieth century, if not earlier. The use of redneck to designate "a union member" was especially popular during the 1920s and 1930s in the coal-producing regions of southern West Virginia, eastern Kentucky, and western Pennsylvania, where the word came to be specifically applied to a miner who belonged to a labor union.

Where I'm from (Southern Appalachia), Union men, and Revenuers are the devil, that must be why it's a derogatory term.
I don't see people getting as upset because they had a sunburned neck.

I tried to get my wife to let me get a Duece. I got shot down. Then an old army Jeep, a CJ2(?). Nope. I asked if I could buy an older Cherokee, paint it army green and lift it like the on I had before we got married. Nope. When I suggested a Ram with 33's and a 4 inch lift, she jumped at it...

I tried to get my wife to let me get a Duece. I got shot down.

When I get in the market for something like that my discussions with my wife are about where I will be going for a day or two, when I go to pick it up.

I have bought many trucks, tractors and such that require an immediate decision to make the deal. Being in the repair business, she often thinks they are customer items. But hey.....it is all in fun.....and profits!
