Thanks everyone for your knowledge and opinions. I picked up the ton of wood pellets without a problem. They come on a pallet and the guy loaded them with a fork truck and pushed them all the way to the cab. The truck rode and handled very good( better than I expected). I'll be picking up about 4 more ton this heating season, I'm not spending $3 a gal for oil. I love having a truck, because, when you need it, you need it
