That's crazy. I've seen obs and oobs trucks do that but not the new ones. It looks like if you just looked at the frame from the outside like any quick look over you would probably miss or it, or in this case did. Good no one was under it when it busted, that could have easily ruined someone's holidays.

Not as uncommon as one may think:

This one was reported to have a lot of weight in the bed.

One look at the lift points on this one tells part of the story.

Not sure on this one, no pics but the bed cab are misaligned so......
Lots of factors come into play; how it was loaded, where the lift is placed, age and condition of the vehicle, where it spent its life, etc....
The next gen frames (gmt800+) may be rated for more weight than a gmt400 frame, but I've found in my experience they are far less tolerant of damage or rust problems.
Which is not to say that the 88-98's weren't without thier own frame problems...:roll eyes:
Just my .02......
