Come on, you could have put more mulch in the bed!

The joy of home ownership, gotta love it.

Yard and a half..? Nice. I too enjoy putting my truck to work at times. I had about a yard of dirt a month or so ago, but I think this load of wood was my heaviest so far. Not sure.

i probably could have fit more in there, not sure if i would have finished off another half yard. i would of needed to have another tarp to cover the top so it wouldnt fly away while i drove home.

as for heavy, u should see the post i did just the other day, it has a little under 3/4 ton of 2a stone in 2 loads.

The load of dirt was your heaviest load probably. I have had approx 20 cut up pallets in the back of my CC which was heavy but not as heavy as when I moved all of the GF's stuff back from college, ie. couch, tv, fridge, etc...

Next mod: Installation of a dump bed! LOL

A dump-bed would be sweet! I think it could be done.

im sure it could be done. we have pick ups that the bed is seperate. it would take custom stuff done, completely custom. the hardest part is having the money for something that is kinda pointless. it would def get alot of cool (pointless) points from me, lol.

Actually, I am pretty sure the wood was the heaviest -1.2 face cord of wet oak and mesquite. I had almost no travel left in the rear. I was worried about snapping a spring, while the dirt didn't have the truck sitting so low.
Here's a few other pics I snapped w/ the cell phone of the clearance w/ the wood loaded and not loaded.
