I was wondering wha others have been able to haul with their Sweptline... I just hauled 2 pallets of clinker brick... a little over 1,000 bricks. The clinkers weigh about 7 lbs each. A 7,000 pound load in the bed. Fortunately I didn't have to go very far, about 15 miles. One guy with a Tundra

It is amazing how much these trucks will handle for sure. I think you definitely exceeded the GVW with that load, LOL. GVW for a W200 is 8000lbs. Looks like, must have felt like you had power steering...
