Worked the old truck today

Got really sick of looking at six, six foot bushes on the side of my garage. So I decided to yank them today. After cutting them down and bringing them to the dump, the hard part remained, pulling the stumps.


I actually broke a tow hook on my Tacoma in a similar situation. This truck pulled them with ease, didn't even have to put in 4WD...barely touched the gas.

Good to see a truck being used as a truck.

I don't think you got sick of the bushes I think you just wanted to do something w/ the truck.

I need to do that with some cotton tail bushes that are causing a MAJOR blind spot at the entrance to my driveway.

Anyone want to come over with their Tundra and volunteer?

but ya, that looks like a good use for the truck

good pull. i used my nissan frontier to yank out some stumps. unfortunately it was in my front yard, the ground was saturated so i wanted to have all four wheels on pavement. so i had to pull them from about a 45 degree angle. the stumps came out, but when i moved onto the next, i noticed i bent both tow hooks 45 degrees.

For Siennas birthday we are getting a swingset to match the swing we already have, so some more trees have to come down.

I had about six birch trees growing out of one stump...it had to go
