2006 F250 Cab Removal At The SSJ Ranch - 2022 Fall FTE GTG

After eating pancakes, fresh eggs and sausage at the 2022 Ford Truck Enthusiasts Fall Get Together in the beautiful north Georgia mountains, we assisted our host Jason remove the cab off a 2006 F250 crew cab in preparation for a buyer who was coming to pick it up.
Great food, company, weather and stunning views made for an awesome weekend!

Hey man! I’ve seen some of your videos on hotshot, I have a very simple question, my truck weighs 10,000, I have a 14GN trailer, 5,400, putting me at 15,5400- does that mean I’m allowed to load roughly 9.5k lbs of cargo to be considered non CDL or can I get a 40ft trailer that weighs more ?? I obviously don’t want to limit myself to a longer trailer but be able to carry less weight.

It's not what your truck and trailer weighs, it's what they are RATED for. Look at the VIN sticker of your truck and trailer. Add them together and they cannot exceed 26,000 Lbs. For instance, my truck GVWR is 11,200 Lbs., and my trailer GVWR is 14,799. The combined total is 25,999 Lbs. meaning I do not need a CDL. Next, weigh your truck and trailer with ALL your equipment, food and a full tank of fuel. Disconnect your trailer and weigh just the truck. Pay attention to ALL the axle weights and what they are rated for (information from your VIN stickers. The weight of any axle cannot exceed what they (and your tires) are rated for. The combined weight of your steer axle and your drive axle cannot exceed the GVWR of your truck. And finally, the combined weight of your trailer and your load cannot exceed what your trailer is rated for. Naturally, the combined weight of your truck, trailer and load cannot exceed 26,000 Lbs. Use the empty axle weights compared to the ratings to see how much weight you can add to each axle when loaded. That's what will determine how much you can legally haul. When you load your trailer, you want to load it so that 15% of the weight is on the tongue, and 85% is on the trailer axles. You measure the distance between the gooseneck pin and the middle of the trailer axles and then mark the spot 15% of that distance forward of the trailer axles and that is where the weight should be centered. My trailer empty puts about 1,000 Lbs. of tongue weight on my drive axles. I add to that 15% of my load and that determines what I can safely carry without going over on my drive axle or truck's GVWR.
