Our yard took a beating this winter so we pulled up some dead patches this week; also need to re-sod some other areas. Today we used the M to pick it up-a full pallet that leveled the truck a bit once the forklift pulled back. Going up those 10% grades to the house was a bear-empty, it's 10 mph in 2nd gear; loaded with the sod it was about 7 mph in 2nd gear, but it sure hugged the road with all that extra weight!

I'll see about posting a picture later today.

Here you go:

Gary,

Looks like she handled it well, how did she handle the 10% grade while loaded on the ride home?

Bert

Pokey slow-fortunately it's a 4-lane road so I didn't have to chug up the emergency strip.

I'm down to less than a half-pallet now-also noticed that the cheap pallet broke as it apparently was sitting on top of the inner fender wells. I'll have to nail it back together so I can get the $10 deposit back

Too bad we don't live closer together, I'd bring you a semi load of pallets!
Cool story & pictures!
