    I'm scraping an old mack 10 wheeler boom truck looks like this

    http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=2899141&

    what do you guys think it weights, I'm guessing at least 16k? Catch is I have to give the guy a grand for it. so if it weight 16K I will make 1200 bucks I'm just trying to make sure my maths right before I take the job.

    I drove a Mack boom truck but it had a lift axle and a nonextendable boom. It was somewhere in the low 30000 lb range 31500 if I remember right. I am sure that truck in the pic is over 16

    The truck in that picture will weigh well over 16,000 pounds. I drove a DM Mack dump truck. It had a 16 ft. dump bed on it and it weighed 28,000 pounds.
