a salty load in my bed

[E7mack96]

I am hauling around 4 tons of salt in the bed of my ram to help break it in. I weighed at the place my trucks are leased to, and grossed at little over 16,000 lbs. The ram runs like it is empty (ok-ok it is a little slower) A friend bummed a ride today and was inpressed with how strong it is. He didn't realise how much I weighed until I told him I was equal to about 5. 5 times his car, yet nearly as fast.



Long live Cummins !!!!!

I see in your signature that you also own a Jetta.

Anyone wanna start a pool as to how far this nimrod got before he lost his load? My money is on 20 feet out of the parking lot.

According to the article, the rear shocks were pushed right through the subframe. Had to be towed. What an idiot.

No, that person really did that to the Jetta. The original article stated that the lumber store made them sign a waiver before they loaded it. I guess they drove the jetta for a few blocks before it died. There are many pictures of the jetta out on the street in traffic loaded like that. Maybe they're all doctored, but I think it could have really happened. Heck, I've seen stupider things done to hamstercars.
