My 2005 crew SB single wheel, I filled the shortbox with round rock 3”-5” by hand in the gravel pit, and I unloaded by hand. Solidly on the overloads front and back at 3500 lbs. truck was perfectly level, drove fine to work all week as it took me a while to unload it. Done same with the new 2017 with concrete pavers of all sizes, Allen blocks, 1” white rock for the yard. One yard of white rock weighs at least 3000 lb. I didn’t weigh it but the loader gal was like r. U sure bro. Probably had room for another with the new LB, but weight was an issue. Again, unloading took many days and evenings, one shovel at a time.

No idea on the weight, but 50 boxes of laminate flooring from home depot on a pallet was on the bed/tailgate for all of maybe a minute. They were trying to see if they could squeeze enough of it in with my fiver hitch in the way. With about 1/2 the pallet on the tailgate, and the truck sitting on the stops, I had them pull the pallet back off. I didn't want that much weight on the tailgate. So instead, we hand bombed them into the bed instead and stacked around (and over) the hitch. Still sitting on the stops, but at least the weight wasn't on the tailgate. Man was that one rough ride home.
