No prize, but keep guessing. Not as heavy as you think. The first one is a 2500, 4x4, gas mega cab, and the back one is a 3500, srw, 4x4, diesel, 6-speed, long bed, with a B&W hitch, mopar step tubes, mud flaps, and both trucks have spray in liners. Trailer is a Take 3 48' step deck.

The three minivans and trailer, about 15,000-17,000.

I don't know what my weight was so I can't give a prize.

The load with the three minivans was around 20,500lbs of trailer weight, not gross combined, just the trailer.

The picture with my old 92' pulling the two new HD Dodge's was around 22,000 of trailer weight, the whole rig was almost right at 30,000 gross. That is not the heaviest we've done though. I've grossed right at 35k with the new truck, pulling the 48' trailer loaded with a Chevy C4500 with a 12' dump bed and a Dodge 1-ton quad cab 4x4, diesel, dually. That wasn't the heaviest though. The heaviest was that trailer(which is 8,000lbs.) loaded with 24-1,100lb round bales which adds up to 26,400 plus the 8,000 for the trailer and I was pulling with the new truck that is about 8,000 so that is about 42,400lbs if my calculations are correct?

Nah, it's really not that bad... the engines are 502 EFI's so the consumption is pretty low. About like my buddy's offshore fishing boat with outboards... pretty tolerable. But, with the price of fuel these days we spend a lot of time just sittin', and less time runnin'!!
