Way over what they recommend but it will have no problem handling it. Almost every single super crew/extended cab truck you see on the road hauling payload or towing a trailer is over it's specs a long way. I go over over mine by 5-6x it's rated loads. never had a problem in 15 years, My f150 has a "official" 900lb payload. it's stupid

Accident with airbags deployed? What are we looking at?
You might have missed it, a Cybertruck got into its "famous first accident" a couple weeks ago. Demolished a Toyota and the world deemed it the slayer of the road.

And you photoshopped the picture?

I'm guessing that you meant for it to be funny, it went over my head.

I don't have time to go and compare it to the accident. AFAIK, it was the same guy, since we never saw his face.

They also had a drop cloth or carpet on the floor of the bed, and it looks like it slides all the way forward when the drywall was loaded into the bed by the forklift...Probably all bunched up between the drywall and the cab-side wall of the bed taking up about a foot or so of space:rolleyes:.
They really should have put the drywall on a pallet on the ground, then hand loaded it into the bed. It probably would have taken less time to load than fucking around with the forklift and orange dolly, and would have been better for the drywall, especially the sheet on the bottom with the spacer underneath it, so all of the weight of all of the other drywall sheets are bearing down on it, bending and possibly breaking it....What a clusterfuck.
Nice work Home Depot! :sick::ROFLMAO:

There is a slant at the front of the bed that limit the number of sheets that you can load before they start sticking out further.
Tesla showed 12 pieces of plywood fit, and that's probably due to the slant.

Don’t know why he didn’t buy a couple of 2x4 runners to lay down first or at least hand load a double sheet first to protect the bed, especially to prevent them from pushing the load in onto the bed and tailgate. Not very smart of the owner or HD.

The bed may not need protecting. Lots of reports on how tough it is.
