who needs a pickup??
found this on another forum, could be bogus but could also be real.
COULD BE . . . THE DUMBEST GUY ON EARTH! This picture is real and was taken by a Transportation Supervisor for a company that delivers building material for 84 Lumber. When he saw it in the parking lot of IHOP, he went to buy a camera to take pictures. The car is still running, as can be witnessed by the exhaust. The driver finally came back after the police were called, and was found crouched behind the rear of the car, attempting to cut the twine around the load! Luckily, the police stopped him and had the load removed. The materials were loaded at Home Depot. Their store manager said they made the customer sign a waiver. While the plywood and 2X4s are fairly obvious, what you can't see is the back seat, which contains -- are you ready for this? -- 10 bags of concrete @ 80 lbs. each! They estimated the load weight at 3000 lbs. Both back tires exploded, the wheels bent and the rear shocks were driven through the floorboard.

I once worked for a local building supply company for many years here, saw alot of stupid stuff.
One very similar was a guy who stopped in at the McPhillips St. location with his beat up old '70's Dodge 2WD pickup....and loaded about 4500 LBS of shingles in the back !! We told him the weight, he just smiled and said he didn't have very far to go...and drove off !! LMAO
