What Can We See On The TikTok Video?

On a road in Mexico, a TikTok user Lapipadelapaz noticed a Ford F-150, which someone seemingly decided to haul everything they owned in one trip. The footage shows how the white Ford, like an ant, manages to withstand a load that is several times the size of the vehicle itself. In a pile of things, you can see wardrobes, chairs, sofas, tables, and a wheelchair.

Under their weight, the vehicle sways a bit, which is understandable. With the load reaching three times the truck itself ,the center of gravity is likely somewhere above its roof. One can also assume the maximum weight capacity has also been exceeded. Nevertheless, it rides confidently, contrary to common sense. And that does great honor to the Ford engine and chassis.

The driver seems to be a bit of an engineer himself, as he had to reinforce the cargo platform with auxiliary boards to make the house-height collection on a cargo bed a fraction of its size without anything falling off. That is unless it already fell off. He tied up all the wardrobes and the rest of the luggage with strong cables. If only we had a video, sped up perhaps, of him loading the truck in the first place.

Artur has been with cars since childhood, and therefore it is already a formed way of life for him. As a child, he always played with cars, built garages for them, and dreamed about a car on the remote control until his parents gave it to him. He thinks that if there were no cars, races, or drifting in general, then life would be terribly boring for him.
