    I can’t tell for certain but I believe that’s an A25. Not really that heavy. About 48,000. But even if it’s a 30 it ain’t but 52,000

    I don't know anything about buckets tare or pintle weight ratings - is it possibly legal then, depending on state?

    Yeah. That’s a 30-40 ton tag trailer. He’s probably legal about every where with a permit

    He's probably close to bumping it. But unless there's dirt in the bed that would be a ##### to drive.

    That's exactly what I was thinking. It looks like there's hardly any weight on those steers.

    He’s probably got 18 ton of rock in the bed. I mean, if you gonna do it, do it right. Honestly, I think he’s got it a little too far forward. But idk. The trailer is sitting pretty level

    What I’m curious about is whether or not the corners of the dump body contact the grille when he turns.
