28 empty aluminum cans = 1 pound. I figure that to be 14,000 cans, weighing 500 lbs. Looks much heavier doesn't it, but well within the mimi-trucks weight rating!

Looked at it long enough to see the headache rack. Now it doesn't look so odd.

I guess nobody notices the real moron, the driver taking a picture while operating his vehicle.

He needs to invest in a can crusher, most of those cans are not crushed. Maybe after a couple more loads that size, he'll earn enough money to buy the can crusher!
