I won't claim that I have never hauled a heavy load, but I have always avoided them, and I will tell the guys that I drive part time for to not do it again when they put a load on me that forces me down another gear than usual on a given hill. Many trucks are specially designed, built, and permitted to carry heavy loads and that is fine.

What you need to remember is that truck weight laws are in place for your as well as the general public's safety and well being. No matter how carefully you drive and how new and well maintained your rig is, there is no denying that an overload is likely to contribute to your involvement in an accident or make an accident worse with possible injury or death resulting. The more overloaded you are the more likely a little accident could turn into a bad one, and you could end up in jail and your wife and kids on the street. This can ruin more than your whole day. The ambulance chasing lawyer can get by without your money!
