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?

Back when I was pulling a hopper bottom, I drove a Volvo (with a sleeper), and the tractor/trailer weight was 26,100.

About 36,000. The Studio sleeper is a hair under 20,000 with two of us and our gear but I've got a heavy reefer.

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