How did you arrive at 23125# GCVW?

bales - 10,200#
trailer - 6,500#
dually - >7,500#
equals - over 24,200#
Like I said, these numbers are just from the paper, but those bales did not weigh more than 800-850-900. They were lose and it was just grass hay. They are only 5' X 4' bales too, not 5' X 5'. But, my truck also weighs #8300 loaded with aux fuel and tool box. I have culled some heavy junk out of it lately, I need to re-weigh it. Quit harrassing my math, Mr. I hate doing it in th first place! I said it was close, not exactly correct. What the heck is half a ton if you are over 10 tons?

Hmmm dont think diesel would taste too good, what about biodiesel powered.

I haven't had it weighed yet, but the manufacturer says 2030 lbs dry hitch weight and 8860 lbs total dry weight. I tend to think it's more like 2250 lbs on the pin, just my guess.
