Mercedes Work Truck

We are pretty lucky to have a Mercedes Truck for one of our work trucks.
Well its not quite a normal truck

It's a mog- a big Tonka Truck that we use the "Cake" ( a protein supplement) we give our calves and cows when they aren't getting enough protein from the grass.

The cake is delivered and pumped into these big bins and then we drive under the bins to fill up the bed of the truck with cake


The cake fills the bed and then we drive out to the herd. The bed of the truck lifts up and there is a conveyor belt on the back that moves the feed out on the grass for the cow/calves/heifers to eat. They usually come a running when they hear us coming. So our Mercedes isn't the fanciest thing but hey its a Mercedes.

Not everyone gets to drive a Mercedes! Who cares what it looks like!
