This is a silly question I am sure, but here it goes. I know you can weigh your rig at a truck stop on their scales. I was wondering if you can use those random truck scales on the side of the high...

My sig says trailer newbe. I like it, but I’m not a newbie anymore. Two trailers and two trucks and many miles traveling I’m not an expert, but no longer new to this game. Gas engine is all about RPM and HP. A diesel is all about torque. You can get up the hill using RPM and down the hill using RPM. Diesel gets up the hill with torque and down the hill with diesel breaking (Both, much more effective). A 1/2 ton truck has less overall weight suspension, axel and breaks. A 3/4 ton has more weight axel and breaks. When the wind hits on the highway the difference between a 1/2 ton and a 3/4 ton is like night and day. Don’t make the mistake I made over the years. Buy the trailer you want, then buy the truck to tow it. Ive been down the justification road for towing with a 1/2 ton, but if you are justifying, you are already conceding the argument.
