Payload	Gb	7-30-99
Does anyone know where I can find the empty weight and the maximum gross weight of these buses? I would like a shell that can legally hold 14-18,000 pounds of payload and still go down the highway. So far all I'm getting is guesses. Is there a book available with this info? Thanks for the help. gb

The DOT will let you carry 12,000 on a steer axle and 20,000 on the rears 10 or 12,000 {I Forget} on a tag Empty GM 35 ft are abt 20,000 with no interior or conversion 40ft 23,000 These are the best engineered and therefore lightest coaches. Only the Senicrusers or MC 6 had dual drives 20+20+12,000 capacity . Have you thought of buying a Peterbuilt and towing ,, 60,000 to 80,000 this way, Does anyone know where I can find the empty weight and the maximum gross weight of these buses?
