Default whats a concrete truck weigh?

anybody know? its a all wheeldrive truck and has a tag axle on the back. Its the rear engine style truck. Any info would be great. All of the info that I can find is for the regular chassis style trucks that are just single or tandem axles.

thats basically it but this one Im looking at is only a tri axle with the extra tag on the rear. I was thinking that they would be heavier then 35k because my old try axle dump truck weighed 33k empty.

it may be alot more. I dunno ........the oshkosh will hold 11 cu yd of mix at 4k per yd so thats 44k lbs.................the limit on the roads is 85k so that leaves only 41k for the truck....hence the need for the tag axle which can add up to 10k of weight limit
