Have to be. I highly doubt that truck can handle that weight unless they’ve really done some major work. Even then I doubt it.
But, given the low IQ, they were probably driving it with their ass 2” from the pavement and Highway Patrol couldn’t help but notice ;)
20k 762 itself would be around 800lbs, which wouldn't be detrimental.
10k 50bmg is well over 2500lbs. Plus the driver, along with the 762, you're totalling around 3500-4000lbs of cargo, if none of it's in metal cans, which appears not.
That truck is probably set to 1300lns max for payload, but let's me honest, I've seen plenty of vehicles going to and from Mexico that bottom out their vehicles.
How did that rig carry 10K rounds of 50? That alone is roughly 6,250 lbs….and yes, I actually looked it up.
Edit; add 650 lbs for the AK ammo.
Perhaps they're lying on how many rounds.

Going to Mexico it wouldn't be questioned (seen frequently on i35 with cars in tow). But coming out of Mexico throws all kinds of red flags.
