    Thanks for the info. I always wondered what the max load weight could get to. So far the max one I have had is 43,600. Scaled at 79 with 3/4 tanks. Now I won't sweat so much for the over 40 loads. WHEW!

    Yea, but you got to get out of the shop first, before you wonder how much weight you can put in your trl.:biggrin_25523:

    On our t700 with a 53' reefer we are maxed out at 45k. Our average (meat loads) is about 43k seems rare to get one under 38k for us.

    especially if the restrooms at T/S were particularly filthy :biggrin_25513:

    the serving utensils would be a haven for the CDC :biggrin_25524:

    She wasn't buying so she had to eat where she was told. I think she's learned her lesson now though.:biggrin_25512:

    That is if you can load it perfectly, which ain't easy to do.
    Remember to add weight for fuel if your tanks were low when you got your MT weight.
