*Singing* All My Friends Own A Lowrider

So... I had to pick up some fieldstone for landscaping my backyard.

The HOme Depot guys couldn't/wouldn't split up a pallet....

So, here's a pic of my truck with WAY too much weight in the bed
(Probably about 3700 lbs.)

DOH.

Thankfully, I only had to go about ten miles or so.

Yeah baby! Now that's how it's done.

I've had mine overloaded a few times too, but not quite that much.

How was the Steering?

Now thats a good way to be looking up at the heavens with the 2 front tires off the ground, i think you got lucky that it didnt happen, be careful though.

I have had 25 sheets of 5/8 pressboard @ 60lbs a sheet and another time 15 sheets 1/2" and 12 sheets 5/8" sheet rock... she was a bit nose high but did not complain a bit.....

Steering wasn't too bad - Although, I dont think I ever exceeded 35mph.
the leaf springs weren't quite "flat" but they were awful close!

RIGHT!!!! Like a truck front wheels would lift up form weight in the bed. I am not thinking a 225" truck will lift the front wheels like that.
