Firewood - lots and lots of firewood, as much firewood as you can fit in a 81 Westy Basic. Over the bed, on the seats, on the floor, in the luggage rack, firewood. Sank the rear wheels into the ground almost up to the axles and I about ruined the clutch getting it out of the woodlot and onto a real road - but hey - the wood was free! At least we were warm that Winter...... Yesterday I used my Quantum Syncro Wagon to move wood, took a few more trips than the van, but the 4wd sure was nice. Best wishes, Tony Anthony L.
