Sold the 21 JT Rubi Ecodiesel, now a 4.5 gen Powerwagon

I'll tell you what I didn't haul: a mini excavator because 37s with 73s isn't cutting it. Had to bring ol Bessie out of retirement (06 F-150, 281k.) Hadn't drove her in 2 months.
If the JTDR had 4.10s or 56s it would've been a different story...
How much did that thing weigh? I can’t seem to find anything (on 37’s)to make my eco-diesel care that’s it’s there.

Hooked up the trailer and hauled one of our blowers down to my shop for service
Trailer is just over 3000lbs and blower is about 600. Love being able to work and play with the JT

... a bunch of expensive metal that makes a lot of noise and produces wood dust:

Didn't know what size the pallet it would be (assumed the standard 48x40), so using idea of cargo divider from this thread, reinforced the front (flat) piece, and cobbled up a temp flat floor that can take a 48 in wide pallet. I wonder if the cost of lumber and plywood I used approaches the cost of the cargo on top of it?

30 pounds of cat litter, 25 pounds of cat food, four 24 packs of bottled water, other odds and ends stocking up on sale stuff to head off inflation.

Dang, if that's got the cast top like mine that's some weight in there. Took two of us to carry the top of mine up to the wood shop after I used my gantry crane to unload it a few years back.

Oh, it does, it does. That big box alone is somewhere around 420 lbs mark. I've been squirreling money, cashbacks and points away for 2 years for this puppy and I went all out - a 230V 3hp model with a 36in table. Here is mid-assembly - the package includes 2 more cast iron wings that are not attached yet. Assembly instructions called for 4 or, ideally 5 people to pick up the saw and place on the mobile base.

That blows mine out of the water - I do wish I had the cast wings. Mine are steel and although it's an almost seamless transition from main top to wing, it does collect dust in there and isn't 100%. I've had it for over 10 years and it's done well. 110 volts - I can really slow it with some of the oak I cut or imperfect pieces that want to bind when ripped but I just take my time.

Anyway, congrats on the new saw! And really clever on getting it up in the truck like you did like that. Brilliant.

I don't have any decent pics of the saw itself - best I have right now is here ->

Damn, You guys have some killer setups.
Very impressive.

In something no where near as impressive, but pretty expensive, I loaded 3 servers and a Dolly into the bed and put a 4th on the rear seat. This was
This is after I mounted my iKamper RTT

Gladiator is just such a great all around vehicle.

Wow, I could put 3 of the servers I worked with on a drive in my pocket LOL
Granted, the host and drive shelf was a different matter..........

I love putting servers in the bed, almost as much as having them drop shipped to the data center. :)
