Imagine my predicament given that I weigh the same as 2 normal people, when I used that calculator I can hardly have a shovel and a sledgehammer in the back and I'm done!

A shovel and a sledgehammer, it’s a good job we know what you actually do for a living otherwise it conjures up images of someone doing dirty deeds in the middle of the night.

Got some new shoes today, all five replaced as well as adding wind deflectors.

Went with Toyo Open Country AT IIIs 215/75/15. Fits well and although only minute, I notice the difference quite a lot from the old standard tyres. 

I am finding that no matter what I do the cab fogs up so have been cracking the window open while driving (not the best without wind deflectors here!)

Following the advice I got previously my next step is to install some underbody protection.
