Default Light Weights??

I'm just curious what some of you guys light weight is. I think it would be interesting to see who's got the lightest and the heaviest empty weight.

Mine's 46,900 lbs. 26,040 of that is the trailer alone. Anyone else?

Are you sure? That sounds too heavy. The Michigan rigs up here (12 axels) weigh about 65M empty.
