I love my 109

Try to do this with any other 25 year old truck...go ahead!

500 lbs cement
10 Pressure Treated 4x4"x8'
12 Pressure Treated 2x4"x8
210 1x6"x6' Western Red Cedar fence boards
24 1x2"x8'
misc. bags of nails etc....
No idea of the weight...but damn heavy

Standard leafs dropped about 3 inches...incredible. And not to bad on the trip home either!
