100%! Even with the regs, some of the stuff I see out here is unbelievable!

I was wondering the same thing. I'm sure you guys have talked about this before but in my research it seems that a few states have regs that are lower than 65'.

I will. I’ve checked out a few of his videos. Always informative.

Is your truck singled or do you still have the tandems?

In your travels have you had any issues being over 65 feet?

Thanks. I'm assuming the published pin weight is based on an empty garage, no water, no propane, etc.

I've narrowed my HDT choice down to the Volvo 780 preferably because of the sleeper size. I'm not planning on singling it up. I'll be towing a Toy Hauler and my preferred model is a Duthchmen Voltage 3970. The couple questions I have for those of you in the know before I start chasing down these 2 items over the next few months are as follows: 1) The 3970 has a length of almost 44'. I haven't measured the 780 yet but to stay under 65' total length I probably won't have much room on the bed for a car. Anyone have a similar setup that could advise? 2) With a published pin weight of 3500 lbs (I know the accuracy of these) am I going to be light on the pin with a 900 lb motorcycle in the garage? Any suggestions to help increase pin weight? Do replacement pin boxes make much of a difference? Thanks in advance for your insight.

No jeep on the back and nothing being towed.

You did pass that along to me. I haven't contacted them yet. I'm still months away from pulling it together.

I passed a nice Black HDT on Saturday July 13th going the opposite way on Hwy 24 (King George rd.) in Brantford, Ontario. Just wondering if it's anyone on the forum. Sorry I didn't get the make of truck but it had inclined ramps behind the cab. Hoping it's someone local I could talk to.

I’m in Ontario, Canada

I've just joined this forum. So many good topics. I'll be joining the HDT RV hauling club next year. Currently just a bumper puller with a half ton for recreation. I'm an AZ driver for a living (Canadian, CDL in the U.S.). Class 8 semi. Lots of trucks available in our industry to convert to RV hauler. Our company runs all Internationals but I'm leaning towards one of the Volvo models. I've driven them before and they seem to be the choice for conversion. I'm wondering if there's any Ontario, Canada members who can offer some advice in dealing with the MTO for converting from commercial to RV for the trucks.Thanks.

I appreciate the info, thanks.

Just saw your post. Did you get around to doing this setup? I’m thinking the same way as you. I’d like to still haul but use for my toy hauler too.
