Weight

we drove a 379 ex hood pete with a 323" wheelbase, with a 132 inch ICT sleeper....shower etc in it....and the truck didnt weigh that much...we pulled a 48' reefer with wood floors in the reefer...including blankets, straps load bars , dolly, furn carts, pallet jack, flatbed gear (chains binders tarps) 2 side boxes, and an apu, and all of our personal gear and we were only about 38000 combined weight empty....

 

we also drove a 780 and pulled a 53 reefer and we could scale 43,000.....so there is no way trk alone weighs that much....not a regular standard tractor

 

I heard the Volvos were heavy but I had no idea they were that bad.

My 379 63" stand up with 48' combo flat with full fuel and all my gear is 32,500.

 

Congratulations on your first truck.

I'm a little lost on this thread though.....

 

My ex-wife needed a lift one day. I took her in the truck. When we came up to the scale house, I told her she would have to get out, and I would meet her on the other side of the scale. Sorry, but I had lose 500 pounds somehow, to get legal for the scale.

 

32 million, 500 thousand pounds? That is one heck of a "Large Car"
