My nephew, 27 yrs. old, decided to build a deck. Didn’t want to pay a delivery charge, so he go his BIL with his truck to go to the lumber yard to get 36 bags of concrete. The gentleman at the yard with his forklift ask if the truck could hold the load, BIL says “it’s got a V8”. Forklift operators says ok, you know the rest of the story.
Depends on the truck. 36 bags of ready mix is less than 3000 pounds. Overloaded for a 150/1500 series truck but no problem for 250/2500 on up. My F250 would be a little over its GVWR with that load but slightly under RGAWR.
