    I had a 2001 Volvo 780, with detroit 14L, 18 speed, with apu, and most options. It weighed in at 23,800. I've been told the newer ones are quite a bit lighter.
    I couldn't beleive this one was so heavy.
    My 99 pete with a 132 sleeper and all options including generator, shower, stove, large fridge, 550 cat, and 18 speed, only weighs in at 24,400

    Pretty funny, the OP asked a question, someone responded with the 32,500 pounds, that response was questioned, the OP responded to the question about the other guys response and nobody understood assuming it was a response to the second question.

    Crazyness ensued.

    This is exactly like dealing with weekend dispatch at a mega-carrier.
    Ah, the memories
     
    KW Cajun and Giggles the Original Thank this.
