I'm with McFalls. About 6 weeks ago I needed some gravel and my wife's boss had some on hand for FREE. Well, I'm still getting used to not having an F-250, so I took the 96 down there and started shoveling. Being the DA that I am, I filled the bed up to about 3 inches from the top with gravel. I thought my tires were going to blowout the whole time over the 6 mile trip. My body and everything was stretched and flexed. I never plan on loading my Taco like that again, I am saving for a tow rig right now.

Thanks for all sharing your experience & ideas.

That "home depot" truck option is great tip! Why didn't I think of it?
Home Depot is like 2 miles away from my place and I always see that nice shiny truck sitting in their lot. nice nice nice!!

By the way, their advitised price is 19.99 per 75 mins, seems like the cost varies per store (or maybe 10bucks of hidden fee ?) Anyway, I wonder how much is after 75mins as I will need it probably a day or two.. to load and unload etc... I will call HD right now...

You'd come out ahead renting a 1.5ton Uhaul van if it's for 2 days.
