some crewcab ford chevy pickups only get hundred pounds more payload


Yeah, but would you like to drive it down the Interstate? How long do you
think you'd live if you tried?

I was the proud owner of an original Suzuki Brute -- right-hand drive,
2-stroke, 360cc, and 47mph flat out. It was great fun to drive around where
I lived in Silicon Valley but when I got transferred to Alaska I needed to
get it to Seattle for shipment north. The distance would have been maybe
800 miles. It took me two days and I got stopped by police three times on
the drive because of my speed (or lack of it, actually).
