Gross gvw empty ?

I'm 32,500 with a FLD120 and a 45'96" trailer with a lightweight sidekit on it. My tractor alone is over 21k.

According to state permits the tractor only weighs 18k and trailer is 11k...

 

You shouldn't lie to the state! On my permits there's only about 4 numbers that's correct and 2 of them are the license plates. Trailer grew 2' on paper, tractor also grew a few feet in length and it seems to have put on about 3k lbs since the permit was issued. Permit says 32k and it actually weighs 35k although the Madison county sheriff believed all of it.

 

I think you're right on the money. It's surprising how things add up: TV, tools, clothes, an extra gallon of oil, corner protectors, paperwork, CB, dunnage, food, etc. etc. The last truck and trailer I sold weighed 2,200# less after I took all my stuff off.

 

they didn't even get my plate number right...

 

I have a 379 265wb, and a 48' combo and I am 32300 so I'm guesing at least 34000 being all steel and those studios are heavy. I'm supprised it only weighs 19,000.

 

Congrats on the good first trip. I hope you have many more...

 

Nice lightweight! wish I was that light.

 

I have a 9900 international and with a 53' step deck with ramps, I weigh 34500 full of fuel
