All stock, just a KN intake and MBRP 4" exhaust. Just can't get enough of this truck... What is everyone else's top loads?

 

35,600 lbs., rig weighs 14,400 lbs empty, trailer is 25' tandem axle dual wheels flatbed hauling alfalfa hay from kansas to texas

 

28,0000 pounds of apples or pears, 6-8 loads per day, 7 days a week for three months a year.
Three axle gooseneck.
No problem pulling, stopping is the problem even with an exhaust brake and great trailer brakes.

 

Loads like this... tractors, hay, cattle, etc...

 

grossed out one time in the 01 at 43k once

 

22k gross combined, just this morning. Not real heavy, but that's all I got

 

How are you guys towing so much? That load was kicking my butt... and brakes. My engine temp was almost 230* on some of the hills.

 

Ya kidding ive never gotten anywhere near those numbers and my engine temp will get up there sometimes

 

26K trailer and load, not sure what the truck actually weighs including the tools and equipment in it.

 

My neighbor does alfalfa hay with a tandem trailer. Where in Tx are you?

 

16k, and the dodge was on the trailer being pulled by a chevy.

 

last load that was hvy for a good distance was about 24k in alfalfa from new mexico

 

33,000 lbs GCW.. Took awhile to get to speed but all went well. Hauling a pinion gear for a huge machine press.

 

automatics will heat up , and I keep my Radiator real clean I wash it out at every service
33,500 hauling a small excavator on my GN

 

Just this weekend I was moving a friend to Tampa. I knew my trailer (10,000 gvw enclosed 26'er) was overweight but I could not believe when I pulled on a scale and my combined weight was 26150!!! That put the trailer at around 18,000 lb! Well, I can tell you that D-Rated 2540lb tires cannot handle this when on the highway!!! I'll be posting up about my trip soon.......
