30,000 lbs behind the Ram
Clicky The Rams time was almost exactly what I expected out of a 385 hp engine. Using the same formula the 440 HP Powerstroke should have made the run in 10.5 minutes.

Because rvers are not the main class of people these trucks are built for. A load of livestock can easily break 30,000lbs.
I am not just an RVer either. I help my ageing father in law with his 500 acre ranch/farm with over 50+ head of cattle so I know a thing or two about hauling cattle. I will have to say that I have never ever ever in all my years seen a 30k lb load of livestock being pulled by a 1 ton truck. Even most of the long 32' stock trailers have a max GVWR of 20-22k lbs.
Most big ranches around here that have to haul that many head to the market generally has something bigger than a 1 ton so they can haul more than just 30k at a time.
