I was thinking one small speed bump would have the bed resting on the tires. KABOOM! Pumpkin spice everywhere!

Typical farmer. They pile on as much as physically possible, and not really concerned about GVW's. Note the extensions on the side boards.
Like my dad(a farmer) used to say..."if you're going, you might as well take a full load!"

Bringing home the tree

Almost overdid it today... the tree was really heavy!

Well, I thought this would fit in the thread, since it's sort of working.

I literally laughed out loud. Then I read it to my wife, and we both LOL'd.

Really ticks me off to see someone abuse a Truck by stressing it like that

Well, I did make sure the tires were inflated properly. Believe it or not, the overload springs were not used during this load.

Got a question---who insures your F-4? Most companies only insure up to a 1 ton.

Joe, that bed sure does look great though. I hope you didn't get any pine sap on your truck. That stuff is hard to remove!

Merry Christmas!
