Title: awesome picture; over-loaded?
Post by: 79k30guy on February 28, 2010, 11:14:05 pm

This was my first truck.  78 K20  thats a 11,000LB crane hook..  Its suspended from the crane and only just grazing the truck bed, but still it looks kinda cool.

I'm sure someone would have tried to haul that in the bed. There is a pic on this site of someone moving a Suzuki Samuri in the bed of there truck. The Sami isn't 11,000 lbs but it still does not look safe.

It definately would tear up a beautiful truck, but the picture is very cool.

I have hauled a few compact cars to the scrap yard in the back of 3/4 and 1 ton pickups.
