Fontaine Infinity 53x102 step deck. Has a tare weight of 11,400.
HD Ramp kit has been added plus both boxes full of gear, tarps, dunnage and 3 spare tires,.. 2 trailer and 1 tractor. I'm guessing its probably a little over 13k right now. I've never weighed the trailer by itself.
With 1/2 tank fuel I can legally scale 46, 700 lbs.

You do realize this is posted in the flatbed section, and that the OP's questions were asking about step-deck/flatbed weights, and not van or reefer, don't you?passingthru69 Thanks this. -

Heck Junkyard johnney My truck bobtail weight was almost that much until I unlded some stuff out of it. I hit the 29,300 point at one time. Got it down to 26500 now

Ah , I can see why though heavy haul, how much do you gross with that rig at the heaviest anyway? One of my buddies runs a 13 axle rig , I pulled the trailer home for him when he blew a motor, only had to go about 30 miles man that thing sure felt long, I do have a lot of respect for you guys that do it everyday, hats off to ya. It always amazes me how all this stuff we pack around adds up in weight so fast, seems like once a year I am throwing stuff off to lighten up
