Tied down too well, only two bails not 5 on that truck, no fraying even with the ends capped with netting it would fray more, note where the ratchets go over the bails, they are not compressed as a bail would, suspension is not sagging enough under the supposed weight, exceptionally uniform bails......

Yeah that is all hay, that much is easy to tell.

5 would be overload for that truck ... 3 at the most if they were real bales. you're talking a minimum 1000 pounds on those bad boys each. we've got a guy round here has his pushing 2k pounds a piece :shake:

not to mention it would do nothing to stop a dog from sniffing out the drugs ...

You haven't seen the way they load bails much have you :chuckles:

I would say 3 on that truck would be the limit but a 5th wheel stacked 12 deep would be more realistic.

Yeah I know, I just know I have seen 3 deep on the beds before with less tie downs than that.

when we stacked box bails we just kept going until the bump stops were almost touching, then it was a load and you prayed that you made it to the ranch with all of them onboard :chuckles:

wait, since when do you have to tie down? man you throw that shit on till it sliding sideways then head down the highway and pray with someone sitting on top sometimes h:

what i hate is when we do square bales and fill the truck bed, and have two wagons loaded in tow behind .... bout 10mph or less for a 3 mile journey. always gotta take a six pack for that drive
