I'll trade ya for a couple gallons of milk and four loaves of bread...
Deal! and I'll even throw in some water.
Brilliant idea.
Salt isn't *that* expensive but people would really steal them out of the bed of a truck? That's ............ saddening on so many levels.
Would be a good test for my Line-X Premium bedliner!
If I were going to use cement blocks or iron or anything like that - I would tie it down good. The bed has those movable tie-downs which are really nice [love them].

Yes, people will steal the stuff. had it happen to my friend.
I'd make sure its tied down with some good rope.
We had the bed of the truck full of split wood. Stopped at Home Depot for Chain oil. Came out and 3 Mexicans were eyeballing the wood. They had stopped behind my truck and were out looking in the bed. A few shouts and threats they took off.
These days people will steal "ANYTHING"

You want to put it over the wheels for best traction too. Neighbor had 500 pounds of sand in his truck for added weight. He spun out on I94 last week in the storm and went into the median...the sand bags all flew around and busted his tailgate in two! His truck is pretty screwed up overall, but couldn't believe those bags did that to the tailgate...blew it right in two!
There is really no way you can change behavior in those who were never taught to be moral.
Howdy DB. Supper done...had leftovers.
Wife made a Lasagna tonight. MMmmmmmm
She is feeding me into a stupor........

I planned on tying it down between the wheel humps right over the axle as not to create a lever with the truck body itself [i.e. reducing downward pressure in the front or increasing it [and, as such, not putting as much weight over the back wheels].
I tend to over-think...
500 pounds of anything slamming into something else is going to cause some damage. Hopefully the hinge is OK - I know the tailgate on my truck comes off pretty easily- you undo the tailgate and take it down to like 45 degrees and pull off the one side then back up to like 60 degrees and the other side slides off. It's difficult enough it won't happen on accident but simple enough that it's not a pain.
That said - thankfully he was OK.
When I about spun out there were light poles on either side of the road. Thankfully I've practiced [a lot, several hours per week every winter] on slides and controlling them so I didn't panic and got it back under control and straightened out...
That said - I am not sure I like this new fangled traction control system on my truck... I can see how it would help an idiot that has no clue what they're doing but I almost felt like I was fighting traction control to regain control myself. Anybody else old-school ever experience this or am I nuts?
