What is the Gross Vehichle Weight Rating of an M35A2 ??
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
ND registers trucks at 10000 lbs or double the unladen weight whichever is more.GVWR is what the truck is plated at regardless of where it is. GVW is what it weighs and some states supposedly look at that, but FDOT will look at that only to determine if you exceed GVWR so they know how much to make the ticket for...........
It's a money thing. There are more pick-up trucks per capita in ND than any other state in the union and the minimum registration is 10k (my post was for Trucks, pick-ups have other criteria). So by NDDOT records there is a ton more weight on the road which helps with funding.OUCH, that is not even close to what the Fed specification is. The manufacturers in most cases would have a real issue with that if someone with the funds actually pursued the issue.
GVWR aside, in TN a deuce is rated for 46,000lbs if you go by axle weight allowed . You still can't exceed your GVWR though unless the truck is modified. There is a process to modify a truck to increase the GVWR but it's not something somebody can do in their own driveway.ND registers trucks at 10000 lbs or double the unladen weight whichever is more.
GVWR of my M35 is 27060lbs.
I tried fighting it...I lost.
Edit; out of the NDCC manual
TRUCKS: 39–01–01 Subsection 45 and 88, 39–04–19 Subsection 2(b), 39–04–26, 39–12–05, 39-04-23 (NDCC)
B. Minimum registered weight for any truck is double the unloaded weight.
