In Iowa, and probably most other states, a rig like that comes under the heading of "special mobile equipment", so you really don't need to be concerned with the actual combined weight, EXCEPT if the weight is 26,001 pounds or over, you will need a CDL. You might want to check the weight, If it is NOT over 26,000, I'll be surprised. Another option is too stay off the interstate highways as much as possible. Most times the lesser traveled roads are just as good and you will still make good time with very little chance of being bothered by the DOT.
