Hey listees, what's the most you've carried in your rig? I'm a carpenter and recently I helped a friend build some covered parking for his "project" cars, room for nine. I made several trips to the site, often ridiculously loaded, like with 960 lbs of concrete. The winner was the trip where I had 10 10' 4x6s, 10 10' 2x8s, and 48 10' 2x6s. The lumber almost all fit with the passenger seat moved forward, but talk about slowing me down. For the trips with plywood I split the load into 2 700lb loads. The Vanagon is great for this since the entire load of 4'x8' sheets can ride indoors. Again, very impressed.
