Breezejunky 0 #1 April 11, 2006 Since I drive a diesel pick-up, I am the most qualified one in our company to go truck shopping.....in the same way one is qualified to edit a fashion magazine after sewing a button on a shirt. Hope someone can steer me in the right direction. Here's what we're looking for: Dock height Carry 8-10 skids (40x48x60) each skid 1600lbs (12,000 - 16,000 gross total) short haul going between 2 locations in town only Am I likely to find something that can handle that load but not need more than a regular license to drive it? Any little tidbits of info would help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnealtx 0 #2 April 11, 2006 You'd be looking at a Class 6 or better delivery truck, sounds like. So far as I know, most every state requires a commercial license for that sort of thing.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mnealtx 0 #4 April 12, 2006 Another tidbit - according to this site, any vehicle with a GVWR of 4500 kg or above is considered to be a commercial vehicle. Don't know if that helps or not...sorry!Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
