In fact, take a look at this... 17,340 total weight across the scales. (Suburban empty was about 5200) Would I do it again? Probably not! Would I recommend it to anyone? HECK NO!! http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/p494/69B-Cuda/1958%20Viking%2060/DSC_8607.jpg red one was about 2,000 lighter but a longer trip and no load dist bars... SCARY RIDE! http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/p494/69B-Cuda/1955%202%20Ton/coming%20home_2.jpg Mike 1955 Chevy 6400 ex-flatbed (no bed now!) sold September 2023 In the Stovebolt Gallery 1958 Chevy 6400 flatbed W/dump In the Stovebolt Gallery 1959 Chevy Suburban Owned for almost 20 years, Daily Driver -- sold May 2016 In the Stovebolt Gallery Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof
