whats the biggest load you...

Have hauled IN the bed of your truck. I have had two pallets of corn seed in mine (2700lbs each) , no picture of that one , I hauled in a load of scrap yesterday , that weighed in around 2700lbs, just hardly made the truck sit level

500 gallon plastic water tank full of water. 4,170# in the back of my 2500. I really didn't like that big a load on there so I recovered my 350 gallon tank from my brother 2,919# and use it instead. That is just the weight of the water. The tank/valve/hose probably weighs another 150# plus my crossbed toolbox must weigh at least 150-200# with chains/boomers/jacks and tools.
I haven't had to haul water in about a year now . So I don't have any pic's.

Im about to take a trip up the WVA mountains and come home with a bed full of logs for firewood. Mostly oak and maple. You think i'll be okay with a bed full and maybe a 4x10 trailer? the only problems i see are the crucial grades i have to battle

I've had a pallet of landscaping block weighing 2600lbs in mine. Took it to Green River, WY from Cheyenne. All that did was make it ride like a Caddy.
