Legal weight - you ask 5 different people, you get 5 different answers, _including_ the folks writing out tickets....
My understanding is you can be legal weight up to 26,000 lbs in MN on most trucks if you have a licence sticker for that weight rating. My F-600 is rated for 23,000 or so on the door, the DOT fella said it doesn't matter, as long as the licence covers what I'm weighing. Over 26,000, you need special inspections and stickers and fees, so 26,000 is the magic number in Minnesota with farm plates. Take that for what you paid for it, I've heard it different ways too....
7.5 x 14.5 x 3.5 = 380 cubic feet.
1 bu = 1.24 cubic feet
380 / 1.24 = 306 bushels.
In heavy corn like this year, my F-600 will hold 350+ bu, but 290 or so leagally to keep it under 26,000 lbs gross.
