I won't claim that I have never hauled a heavy load, but I have always avoided them, and I will tell the guys that I drive part time for to not do it again when they put a load on me that forces me down another gear than usual on a given hill. Many trucks are specially designed, built, and permitted to carry heavy loads and that is fine.
