    Service. At that point I was used car / new car prep shop forman. Drove used cars for evaluation and such. Still worked on cars every day. At the end I was a service advisor so wasn't really working on vehicles anymore. I dabbled with management and only sold service.

    damm I dont even remember that one at all. We didnt see many non Troopers during the 2 years I worked in them. The occasional pickup and some Rodeos/Amigos and a few older cars, but at that time the Trooper was the big seller of the lineup.

    Took a vacation day to take one of my cats for his annual shots. Did the dump run, then decided to take a cruise across state and pick up some pellets.

    This is the first time I've loaded up the Explorer and it took that 1160 pounds with just a bit of a squat. Yeah, had to adjust the rearview mirror up a bit to accommodate for the squat, but had plenty of space between tires and wheel wells, so not problem. Took it easy as the front was a bit light - I weigh little so partway back I stopped and put a couple of bags up front with me to help even it out a bit. Gave myself plenty of room between me and the cars ahead to accommodate longer braking time. Was still legal - GW is 5720 and VW is 4304 so I still could have legally put in another couple of bags :D

    And, as you can see, I still had plenty of room in there. I still think of weights and cargo space in terms of the Patriot (950# max cargo - including me and 25 bags max - yeah, I did that), so this still amazes me. Hey, and I've already stashed that stuff behind lock and key, so no :vulture:.

    I'm surprised no Canucks revealed the mystery as some haven't ventured there. :cool:

    If you do this often get some cargo panels? :DThe weight shift forward is a real pain in the back! Yes, I've seen the results too many times.:( It's the sudden deceleration thats a back breaker.:tears:

    I had my old Blazer packed to the roof , HUGE interior in those older ones with with cases of paper (46lb each). Someone ran a stop sign. Over weight limit, back seat taken out, yep, one case on my head and another on the back of my neck. I think it was 1/2 deceleration, that old truck with clutch and stiff gas pedal, but only going 30mph, and 1/2 was the truck lunging forward from the sudden stop and being over loaded.:hair::hair: In the end, a pedestrian and bicycler stopeed to see if I was ok and I was, but I was super pizzed the large iced tea I had just bought was tipped over and melting on my floorboards!!:rofl: :lol:
