How long is the truck?

28.1 according to the specs. We are supposed to be flying out in a week to look at it, that is if we can use someone elses frequent flyer miles. We are still gathering donations for this thing (the frequent flyer miles was one), so money, time away from work and conflicting schedules are playing a role.

Are you interested? If we cannot find a reasonable price we may drive this thing back. Thanks for looking.

First,i could never haul something of this size. 38klbs is a lot and may require an over weight permit in most states. i weigh 43klbs empty so i couldn't even scale that weight.80,000 LBS gross is max with out special permits. A flat bed trailer is probably a little bit lighter depending on the weight it's designed to haul.I would guess that size load going the distance you want would cost 2-4k$ depending if it had to be a permitted load. hope this helps a little.
