th gmc topkick is a bad ass rig it can pull well over its segested limit.. but the goverment put the limte because they didnt like it for whatever reason... thought no one would by it.. i pulled a CAT d9 across florida with it about twice a week good video tho man!
@kdwedge243 You can tow beyond the specified limit's of any of these trucks. They will haul more than rated. The problem is the brake systems are are rated to the truck design load limits, plus about 20%. Exceeding the vehicles rated load limit makes it dangerous to operate and to the motoring public as stopping distances are greatly increased. Increases wear and is illegal. Generally speaking over weight tickets run around $9 per pound above truck rated limit and/or Tag limit.
@GunBroker100 yea my trailor has electric breaks... and i have been stoped a few times... i dint always use teh highway so im on a lot of backroads...
@kdwedge243 Mine have electric brakes too. Ones a 36 foot flat bed the other a 42 foot low deck. I just have to watch, Missouri is pretty unforgiving when it comes to over weight loads. They've put me on portable scales several times. Always just below my 58,000 gross on the F-350 S/D. They do it more with my K-W. It's a heavy haul so I can legally scale 118,500 with a spread axle.
International MXT is the most practical one to own. Simply the best!
