    The three hopper Heil I haul cement with weighs around 11,000 lbs, I believe. Maybe 12k.

    When I’m full of fuel, my tare weight is usually 27,200 lbs. Truck is a KW T800 glider and weighs less than a lot of newer trucks.
    It’s nothing to get loaded with more than 26 tons at most locations.

    Ok. All the trailers I haul at 2000-2600cu ft 4/5 hopper 3/4 axle 53’ers and are anywhere from 13-16,000 empty then add in my 24k 4 axle truck, things get heavy fast but I can still carry our 32 ton loads so it works.
