I also hauled a load of concrete blocks 2 high in the bed (about 6000lbs) and a trailer loaded with about 4000lbs more. Plus a beam on top that was 54 ft long. Also it hauled, in two trips, all the slate off a 54ft by 30ft barn. But saying that this is small in comparison to the carp I put my 77' 3/4 truck though this summer:) Good ol' chevys just keep on trucking!

What did you use for bait to catch it? Jerry Oppose I meant crap not carp. my bad One of those trips the old 77 hated me for was a 140hp 16000 lb Allis Tractor but if it had been a Deere I could have said "carp". They've ponded two John Deere's back at JD equipment where my brother works since he started working there two years ago. Hehe. After all nothing takes a dump like a Deere!
