Yes had it filled a few times, towball droped a whole 2 inch when full of yew chippings so handles it well, corner's normaly full but I tend to be a steddy away sort of driver so helps, towing is a dream as so much pull from the perkins, mpg no idea but no worse than the landy but better as not having to empty off 2~3 times a day. The winch is fantastic as just pulls with so much controle, just looking into making it remote controle. Sign writing getting done next week and with luck cab getting painted soon too. Its no more numb to get in places than a transit or pos the landy but having the flap in the headboard has helped. Loving it:thumbup:

That 1 is up for nearly 10g and then the tipper is anouther 2g on top which is more than what mine stands me at. Yes it only has 800 mile on it and mine had 15000 when I got it but would you want a 1989 truck that has done about 35miles per year off its life, might be a few isues with seals and gaskets drying out or perishing from lack off use. Just a warning I was given by a ex miletery spanner man when I started looking. It is tidy surprised a colector hasn't had it by now
