Idealy you would want a 50/50 split in weight front and rear.... That
would probably leave the back end riding low though with all that weight.

I drive a 2001 Silverado 2500HD 4x4.... Adding 500 pounds to the bed
made no difference. Of course, it's got a torque pumping diesel motor and I
have a heavy foot.... =)
