Yes a truck load off beer has weighed me down a few times too!
Going up that hill at 50 in a roaring F-350 is plenty of drama for me.
The risk being burying an F-350 on a big hill. That would suck and mucho drama would follow.
There is a small jump in the middle.
I didn't lift but don't remember getting air... but that was the caution I recieved so was a little timid the 1st try.
My experience so far is you can't hurt an F-350... but it can hurt you...

And I almost got stuck backing down when I got to the soft flat part on the bottom.
I came down slow because people have rolled backing down.
My truck didn't like backing up. The rear hops. And the front starts to bury itself.
I was close enough to the wet packed beach to dig a path with my hands.
But was another ding to my confidence for the next climb attempt.

If forgot about the rise-his brand new 10' Ace was in back and got bounced pretty well. I had a board bag. We were lucky that my brother managed to
not bury the wheels on the first try. The there was a solid grey marine layer and in retrospect, even the dunes were still pretty wet so it was
probably as easy as it gets. I have a picture somewhere, I'll see if I can find it. That trip was documented a couple of iphones ago.

That's why the boys carried the rods up. We had aready damage 1.
I had a kayak strapped in and it bounced enough I was worried it might crack...

nice camp!
Found them. Here's stuck. You can see the tracks from the wheels hopping. And the second to show just how tall the dune is.
