I use my truck as a truck......I've just never taken pics really
Only one I found was bringing home a 8' long 300+ gallon fish tank


and the 2nd pic...much lighter load, also had the bed full w/tarp over the bed to hold them all in
Plastic Holiday decorations =called blow molds, 2 truck loads from NH
Only took a Pic of the cab...in the summer...Wendy's people thought I was nuts
Found the pic of the bed, after I took the tarp off
I've hauled over 2,400 lbs of pavers in the bed......
I PU sand, gravel, soil & building supplies all the time....plus wood for my stove
Truck gets a workout every now & then...no real off roading yet

This photo is from Christmas last year. Wife, her brother, sister and I. Three labs. Put a bike inner-tube between the cab and the cap for heat. Passed back and kept the metal of the bed warm to the touch (they were on dog beds, though) down to -40 (that's both Celsius & Farenheit). Over 350 miles we saw temps from -5 to -42 . Ended the trip at -38 and 15.6 MPG. Cold weather front was on, and does make a difference.

I plan on upgrading the carrier on top to a larger one soon. It looks puny on top of the truck and doesn't carry much...

Two hay runs yesterday, first to the feed store for a ton of timothy hay, 35 bales, plus a few bags of feed. Unload that for my morning exercise, and then to a local hay farmer for 35 bales of coastal bermuda hay.

No, we have a small horse boarding farm, eight horses right now.

And it is great coastal. We've been buying from this farmer for 12 years and have never had a bad bale.
