It may not look overloaded but


This car in Santa Rosalia was sooo full, there was no room for the puppy inside.

I'm trying to find my pics from the mid 80's. Hope for the contestants that I don't find them. Nodody would stand a chance. Stories were even funnier then the looks of the truck. :P:P:P

This photo was taken by my passenger, so I may not qualify for the contest, but it was funny nonetheless. :lol:

We were filling up at the Pemex just north of the military camp near Guerro Negro, March 2004.

Echo


We took our Echo all the way to La Paz and Cabo 4 years ago. The kayaks are 16 ft, 3 ft longer then the car. We drove this rig to Cabo Pulmo and all over the east cape too. Had to have body work done on the roof above the doors when we got home.

After my dress rehearsal yesterday packing the Subaru for 3 weeks camping- I think we may win this one. Four people + luxury camp gear = one overloaded car.

Damn, I wish I had my camera for one shot. We spotted a small pickup with like a thousand water melons in it. The bumper was about a foot off the ground! Amazing sight.

truck load


Not as aesthetically pleasing as the typical Beverly Hillbillies load of furniture and bicycles but every bit as overdone. This semi load of steel rebar is topped with a fully loaded stake bed truck, and in front of that there is parked a nice yellow dump truck. Couldn't tell if the dump was full or not. Guy was doing 65 and I didn't try to pass for a side photo. Risky enough shooting through the windshield from behind. Dual plates, Cal and Baja C. Wonder if the CHP got a look at that one or if the load grew after the border.
