I've hauled an extension ladder and a bunch of stuff to the dump (separate trips)...does that count?
It's mostly just a big vette though...
07 Z71 4x4, 6.0L, 3.73s, Turbonetics T76 @ 10 psi, 75 shot, Snow meth kit, PLX DM-100 wideband gauge, Nelson tune, Comp 212/216 .557/.561 114 lsa, 60# injectors, Yank 3000, 4L80E , Magnaflow - dumped, e-cutout
Line-X, Pace Edwards Full Metal Jackrabbit bedcover
IMO, i put my old truck through hell and back. i pulled a dodge cc dually on a 28ft car hauler twice on a 250 mile trip (this was before i had any performance parts). i have loaded it down with scrap metal and half a dozen fourwheelers, even a load of gravel. all without a bedliner.
this new truck has a spray in bedliner and has never had anything in the back of the truck. i have pulled a trailer with it though.

Dirt bike hauling, 4-wheeling, setting off car alarms, pulling small trailers, hauling scrap, etc...
Got a bed for a reason. But if it was 2wd, it would be a street machine.

I use mine as a weight to hold the concrete down at Jon's shop.
Gone, but not forgotten!
I use mine as my shadow, if I go somewhere, it goes somewhere. Mostly I just go between work and home. The most it has hauled its entire life was some trash bags/cans and a lawn mower, blower, and trimmer. After I get my suburban it will sit at Jon's shop until the bags are done then it will come home to it's new garage and sit inside a jacket next to the GTO (which will also be in a jacket) until I want to go play in it.

Sticky/broken gauges? I can help. PM me for details.
My truck has pulled a 28' car trailer with everything from a one of a kind $200,000 67 Mustang convertable to a load of couches. It's pulled a toy-hauler filled with quads down to the dunes.
The bed has been loaded down with way too much to think of. Had just about everything from about 500-600lbs or copper wire in 2 huge boxes to a load of gravel. Taken about 50 trips to the dump. It's never had a bed liner in it and never will.

And it thinks that it is this.

Work out of mine daily. Carry about 400-500 lbs of tools and supplies in the bed. I put 30-35k per year on it.

I have moved in my truck twice, helped my girl move, haul my 21.5ft mastercraft with it. But most the time I just use it to haul my bicycle if it's hauling anything.
