Ford Model-T Truck hauling 8,000 pounds of hay down a paved country road in 1921. The dried fodder seems to overwhelm the small truck, yet the driver gamely travels along. Model Ts were popular for transporting harvest crops. They had earned a tough reputation among farmers who knew the vehicles could handle hard work.

Cool one 330 !
Yep, I can vouch for them Fords being tough.

Both cool pictures!

you could double up the transmissions on those model T's so you could have low low

my family , great grandpa and uncle had one they called the Tar Baby had a reel to hold fishing nets on the back they had a rutted path through the field they could get in the ruts put it in first , first and let the clutch out it idled forward slower than walking speed they could lay the nets out and tar them, then put the rear transmission in revers and it crawled back and they wound the net up on the reel

Cool story GCP !
Many doodlebugs were made from them old trucks.
Poor mans tractor. The only ones many early farmers could afford.
They were tough, and worked surprisingly well.

Crowfoot, that looks like a “High-boy”.

Cool pics!

Wow

great pic, talk with my uncles and it was an art to load a stack of hay so it would stay on, they said you learn fast

Farmers understand the principles of physics, its innate and they are the best engineers ...at least in the US

How sad what they've become!

So True

That's a cool pic no doubt but it's clearly not a model T. Could be a truck of some sort modified from a Model T frame. But it looks like it has a large flatbed of some sort on the back. I wonder how much loose, grassy hay it actually takes to make 4 tons....
