[QUOTE="Cowcatcher, post: 3087948, member: 43171"] Yeah the modern feed truck isn't the most nimble creature. The weight of the truck plus, 2000lb bed, feed box maybe 200lbs, 2000lbs of feed full and about 2500lbs of hay. Loading light would sure make a long day for me. I feed in 11 pastures a day and it takes 14.7 miles of "off road" driving to do it. We have hay lots scattered across the ranch but all feed must be loaded at HQ. pretty neat we have an actual train car up on stilts that holds 3 semi loads of feed (pictures later). This ranch just joined the round bale club about 7yrs ago. Thank goodness that was before I came here. I think they square baled and fed like 30k sq bales a year or something like that. I grew up on Colorado ranch pitching small and large squares off the back of a truck. [/QUOTE]
