My trusty old 5.2 1998 1500 I've owned since 1999.

First pic is empty, second with one "scoop" of limestone, second with two scoops.

Guy who loaded says each scoop weighs between 1900 and 2000 lbs, so I'm guessing the little half-ton hauled home between 3,800 and 4,000 lbs.

We pretty much only keep this truck around for hauling mulch and stone, or whatever else would make a mess in my '92. It has never let us down!

Two scoops, between 3800-4000 lbs.
