    JESUS!!!!! I was wondering where you were hiding nd. Thought they might be working you today. I'm friggin lucky my damn truck didn't flip with that weight. 1800lbs!!!! She steered great with the load. I had it up to 55mph also. Just the bumps scared the shit out of me! And nd, that picture nola posted is of me doing kegstands last weekend!!! HAHAHA!!! JK!

    Wormhole, I can't believe I never even heard of the TSS. Cool!

    I had 1500 lbs of bagged gravel I was hauling for my mother. That was a little nerve racking. I didn't know if I was driving or clearing for take off!

    yeah, i tend to dissapear on teh weekends. I am very rarely near a computer on the weekends or at night. I'm with you though, i never heard of TSS until i saw Wormholes truck (nice truck BTW wormhole, looks great)

    I use to work in construction and we had an old Dodge Ram we hauled stuff around in. I think the payload capacity was 1000lbs. We had to move 3000lbs of brick. We didnt feel like making 2 or 3 trips so we loaded all 3000 lbs in the back of that thing. The tires were up in the wheel well and the front end barely had any weight on the tires. I was the one driving and turning that truck was terrifying. The front tires felt like they were floating just a few centimeters from teh ground, turning the wheel didnt necessarliy mean the truck was gonna turn right away. My boss wondered why the truck never drove right after that day but he never put 2 and 2 together. Oh well, its a work truck, thats how you're suppose to treat them.
