GEN 2 ~1,100 lbs in the bed

SCREW payload is 1,200 lbs, this is about 1,100 lbs (half pallet of water)

Drove about 100 miles like this. Squatted it hard but it handled okay

soft suspension doesn't like load.

Just to give you and idea of the squat with a half ton in the half ton

So you where at least 100lbs over your payload rating then, no shit it handled like crap.

Where did I say it handled like crap?

I didnt realize Payload included me

I am 6'5" 250, and a google search showed a half pallet of water weighs ~1,040

so MAYBE 90 lbs over payload. In the ballpark though. We will just ignore the tool box weight lol

Nice test! Thanks for sharing.

It's one reason the factory rake exists. Though 90% of us will never get to the max payload like you did on a regular basis.

Oh yes, thank you, i should mention I have the RPG 1.5" level

Neat.

I remember back in the day, filling my work truck F150 with dirt and rocks and concrete, bouncing off the top of the tires on the way back to the yard. #coolstorybro

xrocket, here I was thinking you are just a poser who is getting a tune and turbo adapters and whatnot. But you are actually using the pickup truck for what it is. Good for you! lol

Just messing with you man. In fact, I was responding to "Pinned" on NESR and his comment about how Raptors are pretty bad at pickup truck things. You should post this in your NESR thread and shut him up!!

hahahahah, everyone has to talk shit!

Pretty much the first thing I did with my new raptor..... load up the bed and make a trip to the dump!!!!
