    Curious why most posts in this thread quote their pricing in $xx.xx/ton...



    My F150 probably won't tote a full ton... at least not more than once

    It's carried 1250# before and I was a bit worried.

    I always measure it by the pound.

    Am I just a lightweight here?

    No you're not a lightweight. I carried in 870 pounds of shred last week and it was $65 a ton.

    I my first load with the dakota was a ton and a quarter. The shackles exploded on the highway though causing the muffler to catch and break off. 1800lbs was my max for the new tacoma though. only 900lbs over weight. I'd rather not be making channel iron shackles for that one just yet though.
