haha...pulling that trailer makes your tuck look terrible. Looks like that little lawnmower is making your truck sag that much haha.

Im glad to see thats all the more its sagging with 2,000 lbs in there. My uncles 05 chevy sags worse with his 800 lbs atv in his bed. Its sad....

Not bad. You only exceeded your "payload capacity" by 4 or 5 hundred pounds.

I hauled a load of gravel in the back of mine a couple of weeks ago and she was sailing looooowww. No idea what it weighed. I was actually kind of surprised that it looked like the entire truck squatted some, not only the rearend. May be due to the new frame and supsension.

This truck definitely drives better with a load in the bed than my '97 did. That truck had the "floating frontend" feeling when loaded but this one doesn't.
