I used to have pug and 'forgive' me.... I had a 650litre in it, plus reel, slx47, few smaller poles ( no cutting bulkhead), 100amp battery etc...Great van, did the job, not sure I did the suspension any favours over the years. I now have a truck better suited to carrying the weight ( you do what you have to sometimes despite it being stupid).
My view...The pug I had was a worker and gave me very little trouble for the 5 years I had it..... it certainly paid for the bottle of wax I used on her
Before the dog police start jumping.....dog stayed in back whilst I worked and was in the front with me when we drove about.
