Someone here an Electrical Engineer, maybe, run the figures on hp and watts and amps on 80,000 lb, is light for a fully loaded semi though, and 6% grade ought to be about average.

Are there regulations for max loads? I'm not talking special loads but regular permitted DOT stuff. I have no idea. Not a trucker. I know a heavy motorhome comes in around 50,000 with toad. We run around 32,000 plus toad.
Ryder just signed on for a bunch. Walmart changed their order for 5 to 15 (10 for Canadian ops).
