You clearly wrote “Twice the capacity.” I can scale 23.5 tons @ 73,280.

i drove a truck pulling a pup for awhile. its a little different. you dump the trailer then jack knife it to dump the truck on the same pile. hauled a lot of haydite to colorado springs with it from marquette ks. brought back decorative rock. threw a crank bearing coming into the springs one afternoon. kw in the springs put it back together and truck got sold. no sleeper so had to rent a room every trip.
