    Nice truck but wow.... 24,000 pounds is the max payload they can haul?? Just the other week, we hauled almost a 45,000 pound load of bulk-load potatoes. Cant do that with a truck like that....

    from my experience , people with trucks like this haul lighter loads so weight is not an issue.

    Well, I spose when you got that kinda money to have a truck like that, I guess you can afford to only accept the light loads....

    We've been to quite a few shippers that require the truck to haul so much and if you cant meet it, they wont load you.

    its helpful to have dedicated runs where you know the docks you are going to. but they are not that hard to get around.

    Looks like its leased to Landstar Ranger, I'd guess that might be an A&E truck maybe ??

    either way thats a BIG ride for sure !!
