Yes Tim, about 76 tons sitting on the trailer.The trailer was only a week old and this was its second load.When we moved behind the truck when we got onto the motorway it was surprising to seehow much the trailer was flexing up and down. :D

Heres a few more.The machine had to be transported 150 meters morning and night on a private asphalt road that we couldnt track on.8210 was a bit light of the backend but was never out of first gear and got the job done:D

Hi Tim,
They were very close to 140t gross on that job. I've had a short trip in that Scania when it's grossing over 150t and it pulls better than my van! :( :o
