Pick up trucks have lousy roadability in wet/snowy weather, not even
in dry weather... there's no weight over the rear wheels... during
winter lots of folks here keep the bed loaded with sand bags. I
really have no use for a pick up, any over the road hauling I do fits
in my Landcruiser (it fits a full sheet of plywood). On my property I
use an Agri-Fab cart, has paid for itself many times over. It can't
be used on roads as it has no brakes or lights but for hauling stuff
on my property with a tractor it's perfect.
Agri-Fab makes many very good products.
