I've only towed scrap metal, campers, a decent amount of cars and other misc items but that's what I normally tow. Now for weight the trailer probably never been over 7500lbs.
My truck is a 93 f350 cc lb drw 4x4 7.3 idi n/a with nothing done besides exhaust. I will be using a 9 ton pintle triaxle equipment trailer to pick up a 93 f350 crew cab long bed 4x4 with a 6.9 idi single rear wheel.
My dually weighs 7300 empty according to the scale at the scrap yard. So I estamate the trailer is going to be somewhere around the 9000lb area.
Anybody have any experience pulling on the highway with this sort of weight I'm mainly concerned about DOT, EGTS and being able to keep up with traffic. Its a 1hr and 50mins of highway each way
Its probably a stupid concern but any input is appreciated.
Thanks in advance
