A BRAT can handle it! If it's nice don't beat it up by doing that though. If not here's an example for ya. I bought about 18-19 pieces of 5/8 in. pieces of drywall (sheets are 4x8) and I hauled as many as I could fit in the bed of my BRAT which was I think 14 (No less than 12 though) and it was squatting some but worked just great. You should see the amazement in people's eyes when they think a BRAT is a little wussy truck like a nissan or something and they see someone actually using it like a truck. It's a workhorse if you need it to be. Of course on the flip side, if your torsion bar breaks, that sucks too. Been there, done that also.
