What have you hauled lately

Couple of trips to drop off metal recycling this week

 

I like those wheels, I was thinking about doing the same for my sport wheels.

 

It is a Double Door I ordered from home depot. For a pantry closet. The home depot guy said he never saw anything wrapped like this. It was like they made a frame for the box.

 

Here is an assortment of things I have hauled with my Taco. The heaviest was the last load, approximately 4000 lbs including trailer.

 

Sail boat fuel

 

In March; 5 Egees party pacs, 13 3 foot Egees grinders, 1 gal of peppercinis, plus sides and dressing


July 4th weekend, my KTM from Tucson to Albuquerque and back


July 8th, about 500 lbs of pertified wood from Holbrook to Tucson

 

1 Dozen eggs, 1 container of fresh cilantro salsa, 1 container fat free sour cream, 1 bag iceburg lettuce all in the truck bed, didn't even have to open up the bed cover

 

No pics but it has handled wood / trees, lumber, rock, dirt camping shit and anything I can fit in it. my biggest problem short box but the long
box won't fit in the garage. 10 sheets of plywood hit the pavement as I pulled up the drive incline. Had tree cuttings to the top of the cab.

 

New fridge...

It's not bad for the tailgate to be down like that driving?

 

1500lbs of cement, tools and passenger up steep forest service road! Not a problem and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it drove up!

 

Firewood!

 

Size?

 

this was a couple months ago two loads this size

 

6x12. 8ft tall, 1100lbs empty.

 

40 pieces of 16ft base moulding

 

Oh boy where to begin... The usual house move, canoe on roof, bed full of fishing gear, 2 yards of mulch several times, 3,000 pounds of bamboo flooring over 2 loads, .75 cord of firewood a total of 3 times, about 1,500 lbs of granite tailings that I used for landscape edging per trip for 2 trips, about 20 loads of brush stacked up to top of cab even with ratchet straps, misc stumps, about 1,500 lbs of scrap concrete to the recycling center, and the usual home depot run for 2x's. All that in about 10 months since I bought my house. Wish I had pics of some of it. The granite was quite possibly over 1,500 lbs as I was on bump stops for the second trip. The brush was pretty comical because it was sticking out all around the truck. I will say this, if the suspension were stiffer / more progressive, this truck could totally handle more load capacity. The engine power/gearing, breaking and cooling are there. (mind you all this was hauling in the bed. I have not towed with my truck.)

 

New BAMF sliders

 

Same here...except my bag of fertilizer was much heavier...25 lbs! Got nervous as to what damage that weight would do to my composite bed so I put it on top of a moving blanket and then drove off
