I own a pickup truck. It is rated as a half ton truck for cargo. If oak firewood has a density of 50 lbs per cubic foot, what volume of firewood can I carry in my truck? Can I just pile it on to the top of the rails, or will I overload the truck?

Gravel has a density of 140 lbs per cubic foot. I need to fill in a drive way that is 120 feet long by 16 feet wide to a depth of 3 inches. How many cubic feet can I safely haul in my pickup? How many trips do I have to make to get all the gravel for the project?
