    I operate ex-Shnider freightliner and now at Russian border scale man says that we have extra 1700 kg. Acording his data trucktor is 7100 kg, Fliegt trailer is 6600 kg.

    So what is the weight of trucktor with empty fuel tanks?

    On the inside door should be a data plate. It should list the weight there.

    Base weight would depend on what engine and frame you have. Never heard of anyone questioning a bobtail weight so long as the steers were under the weight limits. The scale house is looking at about 15,653lbs for a bobtail. This must be the stripped out weight. Add about 1200lbs (544kg) for fuel (150 gal) and still you are sitting about 21k for weight.

    They also have to add in personal effects and your body weight.
