Hi
Kind of a random question, I know, I just think this is a great place to get a answer.
Anyway, I have a single cab pickup truck. So of course I have a very light back-end, to compensate for this in the winter for more traction I have been putting in a solid steel plate my Dad bought ages ago. Now I'm wondering exactly how safe is this(for say being rear-ended).
The plat fits between my wheel wells and covers most of the bed and is about 1inch thick. The claim is that it weights about 600 pounds but in general my Dad's estimates are horrible. Considering the size and how well it works I think he might be right.
So any thoughts?
