Had to haul a load of construction debris to the dump today. It was a good size load that I got numbers on, so I figured someone who needs to haul might find this info useful.

I went on the scale at 7540
Truck with me in it 6020
Offload was 1520

I have a 1500 rclb 4x4 that has a bedbox full of tools, and system one rack (it's heavier than you think) and drop in bedliner.I'm guessing all that stuff weighs in at 200-250. I weigh 200. Gas tank half full.

I was surprised the offload was over half ton. The truck felt like it could haul more. I had a pallet of roll roofing one time and that was pretty heavy, but don't know what the weight was.

 

thats good stuff... ive put hundreds of lbs of firewood in mine... with pulling a trailer with my friends show car on it... trucks got *****...

 

....i just loaded around 1 Ton yest. of course the nose was high in the sky but the truck was going as if its all normal, but the breaks were weak. by the way i was scared to death but i wanted to risk it. that truck kicks ***
