maybe if you fill the tank half full.
if you need to drive on public roads; find an old 70's grain truck. They are cheap and will handle this weight.

stupid, carless morons with no regard for public safety. If they want to over work the truck and are ok when it breaks; I have no problem with. Putting others at risk is unacceptable.
