i'm 34 but i wish i would have found this site when i was 21 i would have saved alot of money on alcohol since this is my addiction now:-Dlove the site it gets better everyday
tblackbu i agree with that but even with the f550 you need a cdl to pull a deuce cuz of the total weight being over 26000 .shot you need a cdl to pull a deuce behind a deuce with a tow bar 13000+13000+ 100lbs for a tow bar=26100 or cdl however you look at it:cry:
oh ya if you were over 26000 gcvrw you need to have a cdl and that gives them the right to to if you didnt have one even if you were pulled of on the shoulder changing a flat :roll: thats probably why they are hitting you with a big tow bill .if they got you for that you are gonna have a big...
another thing they might be looking at is the trailer in some states any trailer with more than two axles is considered comercial and requires its own insurance and forces you to have a cdl.if the police had it towed they should have givin you a ticket .what ever is on the ticket is what you...

gcrvw is not the weight ot the truck plus the weight of the trailer it is the total weight of truck,payload and trailer a truck that has a tow capacity of 10000and the truck weight is 6200 might have a gcvrw of 18000 -20000 . since the manufacter knows the truck cant handle a tongue weight of...
so stumps and westex i hope you read my last post and it helped you guys understand what tow capacity is since it is very different than gcvrw and mistaking the two will get you into trouble fast.yes i agree you should never exceed the gcvrw but you can be under the gcvrw and still be over the...
my truck was a 1988 f250 extended cab lond bed had a gvrw of 9200 with a 460 plow and dump kit it tipped the scales at 6800lbs with the gas tank on e.cerdified scale i used it to scrap and had it across the scale every other week and i know what gcvrw is and i know what gvrw is you need to read...
i know how to read and know the difference between gvrw and tow capacity , and payload . if you were correct my f250 i had that was rated at 12500 would only be able to tow 6000 since the truck weighed 6500+:?: hmmm no it was rated to haul 12500 they are assuming you have proper brakes and...
no it was tow capacity i was looking in a 2001 chevy truck owners manual .but i agree there isnt a 1 ton truck out there with a rated tow capacity big enough to haul a deuce on a trailer:cry:unless maybe on a fifth wheel trailer.but that would be really if,y
life is really fragile we should all use safe towing - loading practices when dealing with these trucks they are heavy and unforgiving .i am as guilty as anyone for doing some stupid stuff when towing but i will go out of my way to take the back roads when overloaded just to distance myself...
i was looking at some tow capacities in a late model chevy truck .some were over 15000 depending on the motor shoot even new f150s have a tow capacity of 10000.i would look at the weight raring for your truck and see if you can find a gray area that will get you out of that big tow bill.but i...
thats what happens when you bob a deuce yuk .i bet they had air ,cruise, heated seats and mirrors.probably even has a driver side air bag ans pass side wind bag:roll:
look like if you would have had some 15.5s she would have went right under you.this is the new cash for clunkers you will get some cash for turning that toyota into a clunker.go green or go home
yes ss is therapy for guys who go green what would we do without it.oh ya saturn sells the pieces separately and if i remember they were reasonable on the prices to
one of my friends bought a duramax when they first came out .one of it,s safety features was to put the trans in neutral when the truck is overloaded .wow that was great he hooked his trailer up and truck wouldnt even move he unhooked it took the truck straight back to the dealer and got a gas...
