    Not a chance in hell his coach, even if loaded with personal stuff is going to be anywhere near that weight.

    That vintage coach is going to be somewhere between 52,000 and 55,000 loaded with personal stuff. Where did he get it weighed and how could it have been so wrong? Did he include 20,000 pounds of trailer?

    If law enforcement weighs on of our coaches and it weighs 72,000#, they are going to pull it aside and begin tearing it apart until it looks like the Lincoln Continental in the French Connection.

    Not sure where you or he got that info, but his Prevost DOES NOT weigh 72,000 LBS.

    FTB, well, Jon and Tom’s coaches weigh that much after they take the cash from the dues and go to the bank in their coaches to make the deposit.

    There is a dues increase in your future Mark.

    Tom and I used to store dues money in the form of Benjamins in our bays, but after greatly exceeding axle weight limits, and blowing out a series of 365 tires we changed to digital currency. I haven’t weighed the bits and bytes of our Bitcoins yet, but I have been assured they don’t weigh much.

    Does gold plating my slack adjusters add much weight?

    This sounds better he had it reweighed on the same Cat scale and 49,680lbs much better , I guess a scale is only as good as the operator
