Great white, that would be 17000lbs+/- for the tracter 15-20000lbs for the trailer and 40-50000lbs for the tank fo a grand total of 72-87000lbs estimated weight just guessing.

then again on second look probably closer to your estimate of 50-60ton, ask the driver!

I didn't really ask about the weight, I was just told to move it.
Now!
Unfortunately, I'm not a "zipperhead" so I never got a chance to pilot that bad boy leopard.
It is one hell of a bad *** machine though....

Hogrunnin thats nearly 24k, surprized you ddn't break the 6ktrailer with 19.2k. 2004lb7 class a lic is for a combination vehicle ie truck trailer with a gross weight of 26001lbs or greater. Class b is for any single vehicle 26001lbs. Then you get into all sorts of endorsemnts from there air brakes/hazmat/tanker/double-tripples trailers. I asked my neighbor how much his truck weighed empty 34,680lbs thats heavier then the mack truck and flatbed trailer I drove for work, when empty.!!!
I dont have a picture but with an 05 Powerstroke, and a 30 ft gooseneck unloaded was 16780, and loaded was 34820 haulin hay around 880 pounds a bale. I couldent get past 30 MPH. Hope yours hauled better.
