    I've been keeping track of how much weight per hole our trailers will move by make. The Wabash holes are close together and move roughly 268 lbs per hole. This Utility has holes spaced farther apart and good for roughly 396 lbs each.

    Those are little details we as driver's need to keep a record of as it makes our job a little easier. :)

    Unless that fuel tank sits directly on the drives. He's gonna have to burn off a lot more then 160 lbs. of fuel.

    Man. You better haul that sheet! Unless you are going through NE. I've seen them give out a ticket for 200lb over on the trailer.
