Hauling Paydirt in Alaska

Michigan gravel trains 164K

 

I thought Idaho maxed out at 129k?

 

If that’s 4 on the truck and 4 on the trailer you’ll be lucky to bridge 102k in Oregon.

 

The trailers are all singles.

 

If I'm reading the weight chart correctly, no road restrictions in effect and the axle spacing on the trailers is adequate then it looks like this combination could possibly be good for about 173,000 lbs?

 

No thanks. I’ll stick to my tri-axle tank.

 

That's putting it politely. This story is full of assumptions, fear-mongering, presenting opinions as facts, logical fallacies, and baseless implications.

 

Thats what i used to think as well... But according to this guy, and the chart he showed me (see link below), that is per axle group. This isnt the chart he showed me I cant find it right now... Thw one he showed me went up to 129k

Thats what I always thought to, but he runs through the ports at 145 with that setup an isnt hassled.
