If my truck can't haul that in one load, I will look for a better truck.
 
I have made some impressive efforts with fallen trees and branches in the back yard. THAT looks like it could fit in a mini-truck.
 
Here in the US we don't drive 15 miles with a load like that.
The tailgate was shut.
 
looks like a light load for an 8 ft bed
 
Are you showing 1 pile or 3? Looks to me like you're showing 1....and if so, 1 load....
 
I see a Dodge in the pic, so I say 1.
I know it's not a 1st gen Dakota lol but even at that, one might carry that much. My 95 V6 short box (6.5') will do 1600 lbs if loaded right....
 
There is probably 2,500 pounds of wood there. I had another 1/2 wheel barrow I threw off the side. If anyone wants to come over with their mini-truck I'll take some video.

How much in 'cord' terms? Was the wood fresh cut and wet? I've had two 'full' cords that were fresh cut on my 2500 before and it wasn't an effort using side boards. Most of the places around here will sell you a 'cord' but it's usually 3/4's of a cord maybe.....
 
Looks like a solid 2 - 2 1/2 face cords. its honey locust cut a couple years ago. It's not super heavy when green but also doesn't lose much weight when seasoned. We don't even like to cut black locust after its dry.
 
I'd say one load. Looks like you just unloaded it.

A heaping 8 ft bed (no side boards) of loose firewood is normally a cord or just over.
 
I cut,loaded, hauled unloaded split, stacked more loads than I care to remember. My dad use to say that cutting your own firewood generates heat multiple times.

A true cord is 8 foot X 4 foot wide and 4 foot high (128 cubic feet), so you'd better have those side boards.
