Message: [QUOTE="backwoodsboy, post: 937594, member: 5415"] What is 'died oak'? Is it dyed a certain color, or has it been dead for a while? If it's the later, then typical seasoned wood is still 20% moisture by weight and has a density of 42-47 lbs/ft^3. Cord is 128 cubic feet so 5376-6016 lb/cord. Assuming 30% of volume is lost to airspace and you are at 3763-4211lb/cord. 6 cords of said wood would come out to 22578-25266 lbs. So you have between 11 and 13 tons of wood. This is commonly known as a metric chit ton. A trailer capable of hauling this weight is going to be upwards of 7k curb weight. Add a conservative 8k for the truck, and well holy chit you are at 37-41k combined weight. Sure hope your class A is up to date. Unless your eye-crometer is better calibrated than mine, you are going to have some serious tongue weight here. Not the tires fault they are bulging. Apologize for the derail Joe. [/QUOTE]
