I remember many years ago a buddy of mine (we were 17 at the time) had a 1976 Ford F250 with 8' pickup box. He thought he had the toughest truck around. One day his dad sends us after a load of sand, we went to the pit, backed up to the pile and started shoveling on sand. after shoveling for a while, I asked him how much more you wanna put on? He looks at the side of the truck, says "its barely squatting, lets give it some more" ok, we kept shoveling, a little while later he goes to look again, "its still barely squatting, lets give it some more to save another trip", ok, we kept shoveling. It wasn't much longer and we were tuckered out, I said lets take this load back, we can come back for more if needed. He agreed, even though he was sure the truck could hold more because it really wasn't squatting all that bad. We jumped in the truck, he pulled away from the pile and the rear end dropped a lot, felt like a foot or more. That's when we realized the back bumper had been sitting on the sand pile!! We made it home but didn't break any speed records. And only needed to come back for a 1/2 load, which is all we should of put on in the first place.
