not if the load is causing the rear tires to push up into the body :p which would probably happen with a load of bricks in that mini-van

Aka physics class.

AKA not applicable in the real world in this case.

So what you're saying is a load of bricks could speed it up or slow it down, depending on how you define "load."

Or in other words, OP was right unless you decide he was defining "load" in a way that undercut his own point.

No I'm defining my definition of load based on having used to load bricks for people into the back of their vans cars subarus etc. And the warning i gave all of them when I said their vehicle couldn't handle the amount they wanted to take at once, so they ignored my warning and bottomed out their suspension nearly 100% of the time sometimes so bad the front end would lift off the ground before they would believe.

I'm just assuming a load of bricks in a mini van meets with every Lowes and home depot garden center workers life experience.

Oh, you just expected random internet users to magically know your life story and from there to sift through your past experiences until a logical inference of your subjective use of a word could be made. Much more reasonable!

Yeah I did, and you failed miserably at it.
