Ford F350 Can Take A load
I happen to see this Ford F350 dually loaded to the point that the actual bed sitting on the frame collapsed over the frame, look at the back of the doors and how much lower the bed is then the cab.
OH, I did talk to guy and he said this was the actual truck used in the most recent BIG THREE TRUCK SHOOTOUT TEST to see what truck was the best, they never show the trucks after the hard brutal test.
He said the Dodge looked worse as it came in at number three=))

That truck is too old to be in the "LAST" Big Three Shootout. That is unless they used the old 6.0 against the new Chevy to get the results they wanted.

Re: Ford F350 Can Take A load
And had a extended hitch on the camper and "slightly" overloaded it and collapsed the bed mounts. Wonder how fast he was going when he hit the bump that did him in. Note the truck frame is still straight.Mike Clay wrote:Lol Randy good one. Looks like a hoarder on wheels.
Nice try though George.

Re: Ford F350 Can Take A load
A little more air in the airbags and he should be O.K. to travel anywhere
Re: Ford F350 Can Take A load
George, sure hope you're pulling our chains. That's an old model.

Re: Ford F350 Can Take A load
Just noticed that either the duals are LOW on pressure - or that's one way OVERWEIGHT camper. Wonder if he has airbags or Timbelins installed keeping the truck level. F250/F350 SRW airbags or Timbelins work on a F350 dually - same frame you know.
The guy needs a F550 for THAT load!

He could put the camper jacks down, however they are missing! Wonder how many people are hiding in the camper. Chris

A Poster Child Picture for NOT exceeding a trucks GVWR, no matter how many aftermarket suspension mods you have, you can't make a Freightliner out of a pickup!

Re: Ford F350 Can Take A load
I can tell you he was driving this truck just before I took the picture and drove it off just like going on a normal trip.
It was a F350 dually crew cab, they only had room in the cab just for a driver, the truck cab was filled to the roof with junk (to the roof) the camper was filled also with junk on the roof of the camper.
Frame was not dragging, truck bed was just bent over the frame, how can he drive down the highway without the police stopping him.

Re: Ford F350 Can Take A load
George, just curious, did you notice which State on the plates? Reminds me of back home in the sticks of Washington in the '60's. If it wasn't WA plates, it was AK or Montana.

Re: Ford F350 Can Take A load
It actually moved. I didn't think that was possible with that much weight on a ford being that is either 7.3 or 6.0...... Sorry couldn't resist.
