Nothing wrong with that.
My Dad was a Drywall contractor, we carried 12 ft sheets in the back of a pickup all the time.
Of course then all you ever saw was 8ft beds and standard cabs.
That doesn't even look like it has a 8 ft box. My guess is its 8' sheets.

I think the issue with that one is there doesn't appear to be anything holding the drywall in to keep it from sliding right out the back of the truck.

Nothing wrong with no straps of any kind running 60 mph?

Nothing like a sheet of drywall floating off of the truck and into your windshield at 60+ MPH...

Exactly!






Seen this one the other day too. He wasn't going far I seen him turn down a housing development. I'm not sure it's over loaded but picking rocks like them out of fields for years now I feel like there is too much weight for that little trailer.

Haha funny story. Bought a bunch of 12ft sheets on our 16ft trailer. Forgot the only single sheet was on top. Had a strap about 2ft back on it. Started raining on way home and wind (wasn't supposed to) had the front top peice snap. Guy flagged us about 20mi later. Dented his fender. He was drunk and didn't want the cops called. Called the cops the next morning

I was wondering how the tailgate could handle the weight ,until I saw the piece of wood underneath.:laughing: Good thing Utah doesn't have any mountain passes.:shocked:

A buddy of mine from up north is one of the smartest and hardest working guys I know. He definitely puts all his equipment through their paces, especially his truck when building fence! (Love ya Mike! - I hope you're not on TBN. If so I owe you a beer...) :laughing:

At least with the pointy ends forward, if you gets into an accident he won't suffer long.
