Haha... Well that wasn't hard to do. And the truck felt as if it easily could have done more... Especially if I had Load E tires (only have Ds that came on it, never planned on towing heavy) and if the trailer had better brakes.

Big load of rocks...

Here's a load of rocks your truck wouldn't haul. Sorry for the poor quality pictures, it was snowing pretty heavy at work today.


I didn't see how much weight was in it but the rear duals were touching as it went up the road in front of us. I would guess around 280 tons?

Here's a better pic of the loader loading the truck up.


Anyway just some pictures for you to enjoy. Those were nice rocks you had there Zaairman, by the way.

I don't know what to tell you, they are in my photo gallery. But they should show up here. I can see them in my post and your quote of my post.

Anyone else not see them?

Excellent!

I'm glad it works now. I was confused, it was the first time I tried to put pics in my gallery since the new system. In the old gallerys you could click on private and you could post pics but people couldn't browse through your gallery and see them.
