haha i take it out on zumbro lake all the time..i mean yeah,its a big truck,but its still just a 1500, relatively light..if there are other trucks out there i will be following right behind! i have never been the first on the ice with a vehicle but i have never been scared to get out there,even sometimes when i should be.. like walkin on 1 and 2 inches lol and if you have ever seen a truck pulling a gear sled,but a guy standing in it like a snowboard across the lake,it wasnt mine..... ha!
