Yep, the now 70 year old truck is still working. As is the 70 year old owner. There was a moments hesitation when he found himself on top of the load and had to jump off (or risk causing a few bales of hay to come off if a leisurely slide off was attempted). Hay's in the barn now and only a couple more 40 bale loads (app. 2000lbs) to go.
Couldn't function without my ace hay field truck driver, hay unloader assistant, Mrs. Kathy.
