I was not really impressed. Running around through a couple of dirt roads and a higher speed and sliding it a little bit. Never a load or tough situation and hooking up the winch to another truck on flat ground doesn't do it. Modern trucks have speed but what else.
I went to pick up some garden dirt the other day in my 51 PW. I wanted 1 1/2 to 2 yards. They said the truck will not take it. I simply replied 2 yards will make it sit level. They loaded it with a little fear. Sure enough it was still a little high in the back with 1 1/2 yards. Most modern trucks with be dragging the rear bumper with a couple thousand pound load. But not our trucks. I have had 5300 pounds in the back which was a bit much especially with the brakes.
