Not me, but my Jeep. I unpacked all my gear, spare axle shafts, trackbars, & steering components and removed my trail rack and high lift jack from the spare tire carrier. I'd estimate I removed at least 300 lbs from the back of my Jeep. What a difference it makes in performance and handling on the street. The weight loss even tamed down the Detroit locker handling quirks a bit.
I guess it's time to do some spring cleaning & weight redistribution with all the stuff I pack.

Wow...that's a lot of weight to haul around all the time. I'm always paranoid about people breaking in so I pull pretty much everything out. Your gas mileagle will probably go up as well. 😀

The Jeep's been parked in the garage most of the time & it's got the hard top on it so I can lock the doors when its outside. When I've got the soft top or no top I generally unpack it though.

Maybe Keane will trade you the Jeep for his 1 ton truck?
I used to wheel a lot. . .

That truck is rated for over 4k in the bed. How crazy is that? Maybe I'll load Fred's Jeep in the back and see how it handles.

I like it. My gas bill should go down. 😛
