Any hills?

My father in law routinely overloaded his 1/2 ton Chevy work truck for about 300,000 miles, original clutch.

Only time he ever had trouble was woth a not even close to overloaded Uhaul truck. DPS officer was surprised nobody died, cargo box crushed the cab, tire blew out. Buddy pushed the other guy out and jumped, bumps and bruises Uhaul drove another truck out to load the stuff that did not break.

Cop looked it over, red tagged it and told them to put 6 new tires on it before they moved the truck or someone was going to jail
