Anybody know what the Payload Capacity is for my Ranger?
I hauled 100 gallons of water with it yesterday and it seemed like it might have been a bit too much. The empty water tank that goes in the bed is only about 40 lbs, so with the water it should be at, or just under 900 lbs. (100 gallons = approx 835 lbs.) This is my first time hauling a load that heavy, so maybe it just felt weird but was still okay?
I'd prefer not to tow the tank on a trailer, but if I had to, can anyone tell me the towing capacity of this truck too?
My truck is all stock, no modifications...
