I'd guess hwe is right at the limit for the truck by axle weight since the truck would weight less than a newr one with the tandem drives and heavier diesel engine with the heavier multi speed transmission versus just a 5speed with maybe a 2 speed rearend. Only about a 40 foot trailer versus a now 53-57 foot lighter axles and it all adds up some. Probably only weighs about 24or 25,000 empty. We have guys with hopper trains that oly weight about 32,000 with 2 trailers and a MI special tractor. Mi special is an 18,000 front with 440or heavier rear axles and a heavy or double framed tractor usually had the 13,15 or now 18 speed trans even some had 2 sticks like 5x4's or such combination in them. Not always the biggest engine either. Back when a lot only had 350 cummaparts or v-8or v-12 hill sniffers in them before they started putting Cats in them.
