It's got airbags, and you never need to add ballast! I wonder what the load ratings are for those tires. I think that spreader is as big or probably a little bigger than mine, which is on a dually. Do you suppose he loads bulk mix or salt on the bed, or just throws bags in the bed? Or has a chase vehicle to carry his bags for him.
That is weird.
Lately I've been seeing an 01-02 style F150 Supercrew pickup with a five foot poly spreader in the back, and carrying a plow. The truck sits perfectly level with the sander on, so he must have some decent bags in it. Still looks like too much for a 1/2 ton. I'm sure when he gets loaded up he is way overweight. Wonder if the bags are just saving the rear springs, while maxing the pressure on the tires.
