Add liquid balancing to fluid to front tires...

She be good to go...

And it looks like there is still room on the truck for another 1000 lbs easy,,, at least 14 to 16" of bumper before its dragging on the road... Ha

Saw a half ton Dodge, new enough to have the coil spring suspension, pulling about a 35’ living quarters fifth wheel horse trailer down Stoney Trail. Massive pin weight on those trailers and grossly overloaded on a halfer for sure. Front tires were definitely unloaded if not coming off the pavement and the hitch physically made contact with the ground a few times in the time I was around it. Scary what people think is okay.

Ha I wonder if he stole it. You would think the owner of a trailer like that would have a proper sized truck for it

No,,, GMC's are exempt from this challenge unless they have F 150 scratched onto the side panels with a screw driver...

And who would want to drive around in a GMC with 2 sleds on a deck,,, lol

This is Ford country,,, the open road,,, packing heavy,,, and driving East across Saskatchewan looking for mountains...

Flat mountains that is... Ha
