Oh! The Utility of It!

What do'ya got in that thing!?

A HEMI and lets see what else....

2 10 foot pieces of 2X4

15 - 60lb sacks of concrete.

I had to ride OG Vato style. LOW AND SLOW. Obviously the engine had plenty of power. I was just worried about overloading the tires and wheels with the extra 900 lbs. It was a short 12 mile trip back home from Home Depot. Let see you do that in a Pontiac GTO.

God, I love this car!!!!

hahahahaha I like that. I've been looking forward to doing something like this in the Mag. please, don't ask me why. It's probably just another one of those, "my truck can haul more than your truck" kinda deals... only... this isn't a truck

Although it is classified as a truck.

Any problems with dust left behind?

**aries4life** · 05-09-2006, 01:04 AM

not according to my insurance company

Funny how my insurance company ASSURES me it's a "sports car" and DCX gets to claim another fuel efficient "truck".

lol mine looked like that also with 20 sheets of Hardibacker in the back. if only you could load up the front end also, wouldnt have to lower it

I loaded up last Saturday with just the wife and kids. I scraped one of my mufflers just a bit. I will have to angle it more when backing out into the street. I keep forgetting. That's the only place I have trouble.

In the past I've loaded up with waters and stuff from Sam's Club. Got it pretty loaded down.

I could never bring myself to haul bricks or cement.

I think I was at the limit of what the Magnum can handle. It was about 900 lbs evenly spread out of course. It handled well and the Hemi had more than enough power to haul it.

I vacuumed up the dust and sand. Wasnt too bad.

I've done something like that. Had a Lay-Z-Boy leather recliner, 85 lb. sub enclosure, microwave, and a TON of clothes in the back while I had a "absolutely no space left" loaded 5'x10' U-Haul hitched up behind. With all that I still managed to get her up to 120 MPH!!!! LOVE THE HP!!!!
