Pickup truck squatting when loaded - headlight aim

You know how your pickup squats some when you load it and your headlights point at the sky?

I edited my post because the next post solves it all. Adjust your hitch and never load anything in the bed of the truck... :):)

    Our newest two Tundra's at work have a dial on the dash to adjust headlight aim. Yes, power headlight adjustment.

    My wife's 2011 Jeep had auto leveling headlights. When you started the Jeep the headlights would go up and down then center. I believe it had them for off road driving because the Jeep's suspension would auto level when you loaded it.

    The other option is to properly set up the hitch to eliminate the squat.
