That is heavy for a Cascadia from what I have heard. I was always told they were one of the lighter trucks on the market. Oh well...
Company truck is surprisingly heavy.

Mine has an APU at 400lbs. Not sure if that changes your mind or not.

So with a trailer you are about 33-34,000 tare? That is on the heavy side, but not insanely heavy. If you can get 45,000 lbs on the trailer, I don't think anyone will care besides you (it will make it a little more of a hassle).
46k rear ends, big sleeper, steel rims, heavy duty frame, big headache rack, APU or other auxiliary equipment and big fuel tanks will definitely all add up.
I can tare around 30,000 with an all-aluminum flatdeck in my C-13 379 SH. 38k rears, 13-speed, all-aluminum rims, single frame, 63" flat top... it was built to be a lightweight and I love it. A couple of our pneumatics and I can get 51-52,000 lbs in the tank. -
Zeviander Thanks this.

Prostar cabs are still made out of steel so that should answer it for you. They are the heaviest ones out there in comparable size. The weight you are saying doesn't surprise me one bit.
