Right before they hit the train when she said "I think I'm ready to unload"? I mean I guess it relates to the argument with Larry earlier when he said it but just the look on her face, it was like she had a moment of clarity, like she was ready to make a change.... Anyone have an opinion on that moment? It seemed important to her which was really the only thing that made the ending kinda sad...
Don't count on hell ever running out of room
I think she regained her senses and realized how foolish their endeavor was. An epiphany, if you will.

The expression "unload" by itself meant, at least in this film, to leave, depart, vamoose.. if that's what your question was. Otherwise, I think she decided she had enough and wanted to live life more by the book, and was going to leave the guys and probably head home.

I know this post is pretty old, but I thought this one moment was the only one that gave her character any depth at all. While you could interpret it as a premonition, I think it was something far more human.
Right before she says she's ready to "unload" Larry says "Hey Deke, ask dingle-berry there if she's going to spend the rest of the trip in the back seat, huh?" She playfully, yet poiniently says to Deke,"Hey, would you ask him to stop calling me dingle-berry?" As she continues to look at Deke he says,"Ah, he doesn't mean anything by it, it's just another word." This makes both Larry and Deke laugh and she realizes in an instant that neither of them truly care for her, and that she will always be a "third-wheel", disrespected, and disposable when the two of them are getting along. What also made it a great moment of reflection is that she does not respond in anger or passion (as we saw before), but in passive surrender. A moment of maturity and realization. Of course, it comes just a moment to late, and she does indeed spend the rest of the trip in the back seat.
This film was OK, but the ending was magic.
Well said, daddio-o.
