Doubt I'll meet to warm up to much in this heat!! Haven't been doing to much desk jockey work recently so the stretching and shoveling has been going on since 6:30 am

I have had some stone dust in the back of my 150 before...so much that it had a nice Cali lean as it was just about riding on the bump stops. Also a cord of fire wood gives it a good stance too.

I have had a yard of gravel in the bed of my truck that leveled it out a bit. Back in May I towed a Crown Vic from PA to Baltimore for a friend. That leveled the truck a fair bit when we loaded that on the trailer. Truck did well though.
