    1/2 full of fuel or more, and I always have more then 12000# on the steer. Florida always makes me pull onto the pad. And I dont know if its because I have a 285 inch wb tractor and a 48 ft stepdeck with an 18 inch pin setting, or if they see my steer at over 12000#.

    But thats the only state that ever makes me "come on in and weigh", even if I'm empty.

    Move your fifth wheel plate back a few notches.

    04 379 with an empty 45 ft eagle bridge belt bottom with a dome on top is about 35,000 lbs with half tanks.

    Loaded I am around 90,000 lbs on average. A tad over 12000 on the steers and a tad over 34 on the drives and a tad over 42 on the trailer.
