Gee, lets see since I tend to use my truck for just that, a truck. I have done the normal boat, pulled out more Chevy's than I care to admit to when out 4x4ing. But, the more interesting ones were like when I pulled a Subaru sideways down the road a ways (boy was he pissed, but, he needed out of the ditch and I got him out). The other interesting one was when I pulled a stump out of my back yard and I drug it through the neighbors back yard, around their house and down the street to get it into my front yard. The neighbors just shook their heads. If I look around, I may have a picture of the stump. The base was about 14" in diameter as I recall. It wasn't a small stump.
As for stuff inside the truck, 1 ton of 1 man rock. Check. Stack of plywood from floor to near the ceiling. Check. The list could go on and on. hence why I am looking at possibly getting an F-350. I need something that I don't have to worry about putting 2 ton of stuff in and driving down the road.
