I was at Lowe's today looking at Werner mutliladder/extension ladders. There was a Werner 22 MT-series I was thinking of getting so I have to ask:
Are these ladders safe when fully extended?? Because they look ****-puckery when they are fully extended IMHO (like the joint would give way and collapse). My problem is I want a nice 20'+ extension ladder but the pickup bed is only 6' and I need to be able to transport it.
What do you do when you need to reach decent heights but need to transport the ladder in a 6ft truck bed?

All I have is a Werner MT22 and a 6ft step ladder for in the house. I love the multi-position ladder. It's a bit heavy but not bad. I've used it as a step ladder, extension ladder up to the full extension, and as small scaffolding for taping drywall ceilings. Like others said, I'd have a nice extension ladder if it were part of my job, but the MT does everything a homeowner needs.
In my opinion, I'd buy the new Little Giant Leveler over the Werner at this point. Only $169 for the 17ft and $214 for the 22ft. The leveling feet for the Werner ladders are an additional $90, so the LG would be cheaper overall, plus it has wheels.
