Got some snow and sleet last night, so went to the feed store today to load some ballast in the truck to increase traction. 10 bales of alfalfa and 16 bales of orchard grass hay should do it.

Actually, the horses can get sand colic if they eat the sand, the hay is better for them.

Guess I should have put in the first post since it was a little bit of a joke.

Here's me truck for Part 1 of our move
obviously not even close to the max payload, but hey, hauling is hauling

i'm guessing I had around 600 lbs in the box + cab... i could definitely feel the truck bouncing a little more on the road, nothing bad obviously, but just enough to feel it.
