    Wondering what HTC'S Coronado glider kits weight with the Detroit and or a 10 spd or 13 spd trans. Looking for empty weight. Thanks

    It total depends on what each different individual components weights.
    I spaced a 122sd Coronado and came up as 22,000 pounds wet. With GVWR as 69,000 pounds with a DD16, full lockers and diffs, and fully automatic(weight is much higher then a reg transmission), full sized sleeper.

    Your glider kit should a hell of a lot less, maybe 10,000 pounds or less.

    And again it all depending on all each individual conponents you want.

    Why don't you call Harrison Truck Center and ask them?

    I don't get there while driving truck, much, but I did stop in and walk around when I went to Waterloo for personal reasons.

    They still had a few Columbia, and some Coronado(some old style with sleepers as well as new style), and all manner of Cascadias. The sticker in the windshield, prefixed with a G for glider, probably has the empty weight weight of the truck as built.

    That's a brilliant idea about calling them. So glad to see you on the trucker forum staff.

    Yeah I followed thru and bought a cascadia daycab(htc protoype) it weights 16k full of fuel. Looked at the Coronado's but the weight was too much and their where a few other things as well.

    My 06 pete 378 was lighter yet. 193,13spd,3.58 (wish it was 3.70) 3.58 is to high,12.7 detroit ( wish it was a c12). I feel better if I can wake up this dog of a motor. Not impressed by any means. Truck is heavy and slow compared to the pete.
