Max Capacity Of Dry Van

Are we talking Dogs or puppies, cats or kittens?

Dave’s OM is familiar with this cargo being she is running a covert animal smuggling operation under the disguise of being Dave’s office manager.

Dave has no idea. He is just another dumb Patsie Owner operator.

 

No. I read it correctly. I was making a lame attempt at a wisecrack

 

Me too but I think he was joking. Unless your joking and jokes on me! lol

 

1 row right down the center from the nose ?

 

Of course, as usual, Jokes on Me!!

 

What do most vans typically weigh? I had repaired van trailer roofs and side panels back in the 90s but didn’t pay much attention to their frame structure

Seems like the roof and sides can’t weigh more than a couple thousand pounds.

Crazy that their just a Giant shoe box waiting to collapse if loaded in properly.

 

What’s funny, is I fell for it. Lol

 

Roughly 14500, mines a paper spec, has extra crossmembers, it’s 14980. They have some new lightweights that are less than 13k, with super singles. And they haul heavy paper loads with them.

 

What does a good combination 53 flatbed weigh? 12-13000?


When I was working on them and felt how flimsy the side panels were that I was replacing it kinda shocked me.

 

I’m not sure, maybe 10 or 11k? I know they commonly load 50k. Seems to be the desired goal anyway.
