I think the bed is a F-350 Ford bed. You have to wonder if that bed is the holdup? It's dumptruck chassis, so it's not that part that is the holdup.
25,999 minus 14,500 leaves 11499 lbs you can haul/tow

GVWR is the weight that can be on the axles of that truck, not combined truck trailer weight. I think GCVWR(gross combined vehicle weight rating) is 50k or 60k so you can tow 30,000 lbs if you want to. Sean

Are you saing that's bad? Why in the world would a person need to tow 26,000 lbs faster than 80 mph???? The stock DT466 is rated at like 520 ftlb. I think you can upgrade all the way to 860 ft lbs[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Heck just get the DT570 or a 425 Cat[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
top speed 80 mph
gvwr 25,999
come on!!
