Parked my Hilux next to one, was also surprised at how not huge the Tundra was.On that topic - I saw a Toyota Tundra in real life yesterday @Haakon. Maybe I'm too adapted to country life now, but after the way you guys spoke previously I was surprised how not big it was (compared to the array of RAMs, F-trucks and Silverados I see around up here...).
It tracks though. Mrs George and the kids all comment how much smaller the cabin of the Hilux is compared to the Colorado

I'm not putting Evie in the back of the work ute. It's dirty back there!
However, she is sleeping on the back seat tonight. While she does that regularly if I'm only staying one night, this is not the type of hotel you roll your dirty bike through.
I won't be back.

I think it’s basically an Americanised 300 series Landcruiser. Uglified and longer.On that topic - I saw a Toyota Tundra in real life yesterday @Haakon.

That actually makes sense size-wise. I still wouldn't buy one regardless, it just surprised me.

A neighbour had a tundra many years ago. It was fucking huge!
I thought the Tundra was bigly but alas not so much compared to a RAM or Silverado or F thingo.
However length for the baby trucks is still about 1m longer than a 300 series. Width in the Tundra was only 50mm more but the RAM is 500mm wider! The downside for owners is that maximum penis length for a baby truck is 50mm.

This can't be true or accurate. There is no mention of the thing that unifies most drivers...a hate of bike riders.

Ah, but it sounds like they were asked what irked them about other drivers. If they were asked about what irked them most of all road users, I’m sure you would find that we would find ourselves, up at our rightful place, at to top of the hate leaderboard!

Well it's been shit so far. Bed about 3am after a massive night of work. Woman problems from 7am. Rainy morning. Just slowly cruising home from coffee and hit a wet patch on the path...huge crash! Slide about 3m into a garden bed, roll through that tangled up with the bike, smack my head pretty hard on the way down, grt up...wet, mud head to toe, crowd of pedestrians all giving me the "that's why bikes are for kids..." look. Ride the last 150m home. Helmet is cooked, pants are torn, backpack is torn, neck is sore. Fucking great...supposed to be going to the skate park with some friends before I head in for another big show at work. Monday is looking good.

This is becoming a hobby of yours. You need someone to teach you how to ride through the wet and/or some tyres that work.

I think some just riding along lessons are in order.

Does that run straight off the tractor hydraulics? Or do you run an external hydraulic tank?
Self contained unit. The hydraulic tank is the axle box. Suction to an Eaton pump powered by a Honda motor. Made by a company in Toooooooowoooooooomba. Well made and very solid. I looked into a pto version but then you need the tractor to run them.

Is there a better way to move your splitter around?
I just split by hand, but have considered bodging up a splitter to incorporate into my dodge plow unit. Unsure how much oomph I can extract with a bit over 35lpm spare hydraulic capacity. Should be plenty.
The splitter weighs about 275kg. 5" cylinder and 3,500psi run by a little Honda. Very basic but the splitting frame is UC and it can be stood up as per video or horizontal. It is on trailer wheels with a jockey wheel but I leave it hooked to the tractor when splitting heavy stuffs.

has some good things to say
You'd perhaps be better off using the PTO to run a remote hydraulic pump. Our chipper uses the same approach.
