    Hi guys,

    What is the average weight of a daycab in compared to a sleeper? I tried to do some research online and could not get anything. I just want to have the lightest equipment setup as I will haul heavier dry van loads

    Your typical freight truck day cab should run around 16-17k. When you start looking at trucks with heavy rears and wet kits, they usually run 20-22k.

    I drive a 2017 Mack Pinnacle with a hydraulic pump. With a full load of fuel and DEF tank the truck weighs in at 16,600 pounds.

    Usually the sleeper adds about 2000 lbs to the weight
