    Somewhere around 28.5-29K. Was 27,650 with full tanks when I picked it up. Haven't had a chance to weigh it with equipment yet.

    It's a single thick frame. .6in thick and 12.5" tall. It's only a few hundred pounds lighter than the double frame would have been.

    The cab is essentially a Freightliner Cascadia so everything is plastic or aluminum.

    This one is right at 26,000 with a full set of 3/8 and 1/2” gear. 3/4 double frame, if I remember right it goes all the way to the firewall. BBB11C8D-06A5-4B91-B98B-5AF7DDE7C77B.jpeg

    He’s got more frame than me and an apu, and a steerable pusher. So that’s the extra weigh
