Largest Load Youve Had On A Ute

[Wingnut]

I carried a xmas tree home last week... Does that count?

The VE had a lot more action but still, I bought the ute because 1. I think they look better than the sedans for both brand 2. about 10k cheaper overall as well.

It has also become a great excuse to not have to drive when we go out for drinks lol.

Me and a mate carted a 2 tonne machine on the back of a 1tonne au ute from sydney to perth a couple of years back!! It took us 58 hours and we only blew 2 tyres running 40psi on the rears

Had 1.7 ton on the back. This pic I believe only had 1.6. Got bored while parents were away on their trip and was on uni holidays so bought tiles and tiled the house. Had carpet.

The 1.7 ton made it fine home from metro tiles great driveway. 1.6 ton had a little trouble getting out of Bunnings but other than fine all the way home.

my bf xls has had concrete to the dump and weighed 1830kg + 2200kg trailer and they wouldn't let me in cause my gross was way over 5 ton, so I droped the trailer and weighed just over 4t, it regularly sees the wrong side of 1.5t the diff went at 55k. The xrt has had over a ton. I caught my apprentice loading the xls up with 160 bessa blocks on the back (that's close to 3.5 ton's) I said WTF no way are you driving that to which he replied but its ony 5k to the other site. My work car is a dual cab triton, I picked up .5m3 road base, while old mate (first day on the job) was loading I walked away to take a call, when I finished he had actually put 1.5m3 (over 2t) on it, OMG the tray is 1800x1800 with 300mm sides and it was almost level with the bars. The tow bar was 60mm off of the ground, the bars which are almost 2100 high were under my chin. I made him shovel it all off till I had the .5 I asked for. Yeah my cars work for a living.
