I used my 64 Rampside extensively as I was landscaping my first home 20 years 
ago:  I've hauled loads of redwood bark heaped up to the bedrails; I've 
hauled 12 eight foot railroad ties (at least 1800 lbs, probably more); and I 
repeatedly hauled 1&1/2 yards of rock, estimated at 2500 lbs - now that was pretty 
much at the limit - the truck squated down with the springs almost fully 
compressed, and it was extremely hard to turn, and I dared only go about 15 mph.  
Fortunately, the rockyard was only about 2 miles from home.  The other 
noteworthy haul was an old 800 lb upright piano - took 4 guys and one Rampside to do 
the job!  The Rampside is one terrific truck!
