Default Largest/heaviest haul?

Another thread inspired this one. What was the heaviest/largest haul you've ever done in your F150? In the bed, trailer, dragging by rope and chain, whatever. Pics are more than welcome.

As far as mine... no clue as to the weight, but I believe this to be the heaviest the truck's done, at least while I've owned it. Not much to speak of but hey, it is what it is. lol Largest would have to be a mutant-**** couch of my cousins'.

One time I pulled a big ol chicken coop out of the shop we built it in, but didn't get a pic. And I also towed this truck home after his driveshaft came out lol.

Pulled my buddies 2wd ranger home after he lost the tranny in it. Not sure how much it weighed but had it on a 18ft trailer.

Picked up 6 tractor bucket loads of manure from my grandparents. I'd say a ton to 1'1/2 tons on a 20 foot trailer.

Then I regularly pull a 16ft aluminum stock trailer. It's about 3500 lbs

Heres some of the stuff I've done recently.


Here are some loads I've hauled. Lightest, to Heaviest.
Disclaimer: I don't recommend loading your truck down this much.

4000lbs of portland cement + trailer = 5K



162-40lb bags of rock +1000lb trailer= 7480lbs


A little over 3.5 ton of rocks. about 1.5 in bed and 2 in the trailer.



My sister broke down in her2012 Chevy Traverse LTZ (6,411 empty) in Gatlinburg, so I had to go tow that POS back 190 miles to VA. Had 5 people in the truck with luggage + 1000lb trailer. So around 9000lbs +. Got about 8mpg though.


Pulling a random F450 boom truck we found in a 2ft ditch. Lol the door was open so my friend threw it in neutral and we gave it pull it out. This was during the snow storm.


Attempting to get a 70,000lb loaded semi, off the guardrail, in a ditch, in a snow storm. We almost get him at 1:19 seconds. No we were "not" drinking lol

The heaviest my truck has hauled was a truck full of people... I have no problem hauling stuff,but everything that needs to get hauled gets thrown in a smaller truck,it's no fun getting stuff in and out of mine. I did deliver a bed for someone once and a push lawn mower,but that's about it.
