It varies. If the truck has a sleeper or not and if it has 3 axles or 2. The average is about 10,000 pounds.
As he said it does have a lot to do with the sleeper and axle, But 10,000 would be a lighter truck, My Rig weighs 31,000 truck and trailer, My Trailer is about 10,000 maybe a little less.
Some of the large four axle trucks that you see pulling oversize and windtower units can go up to 28,000 by themselves
The order of over the road trucks kind of follow this pattern from light to heavy
Freightliner
Mack
Peterbuilt
Kenworth
Freightliner trucks have some of the lightest over the road trucks on the market but some of the condo sleepers are heavy
Mack can very a great deal depending on the chasis and run fairly close
Volvo can also very a great deal because of the size of the sleepers and are one of the safest trucks on the road
Peterbuilt depends too on chasis and style
Kenworth units with the long nose are almost always heavy I had a W-9 that weighed out at 23,000

How much does a semi truck without trailer weigh?
The weight of the truck depends on the size. If you have a semi truck with a trailer it will weigh less, rather than if it had the trailer it would weigh more. If you have a large engine than it will have less space in the interer and less space inside. If you have bunk-beds than that will take more space, and so on. So really it all depends on the brand,( for interer) size, and truck check.

How much does a semi truck weigh with no cargo?
16,000 - 20,000 lbs usually for the front part ("truck", "tractor", "cab"). But the empty trailer adds several tons more. For example a 53 foot long simple box ("van") trailer weighs 10,000-15,000 with nothing in it. So a whole 65 foot long empty system (truck and trailer) weighs over 30,000 lbs. Shorter box, flatbed, and covered wagons systems would weigh less. Systems with an extra long truck or specialized systems, like some of those with tank and pumping equipment, may weigh more. Adding to this answer. I have a 2003 kenworth w900 with a stepdeck trailer and i weigh 32,000 empty.
What size truck and trailer is needed to move a Case 450 bulldozer?

If my tri axle dump truck has a GVW of 70000 can weigh up to that much what if I add a 20000 lb trailer what if I add a 25000 lb machine?
GVW means Gross Vehicle Weight. That's the maximum permissible weight of the truck plus the trailer (in the case of a combination rig) plus the load. Therefore...if you take your dump truck, hook a 20,000-lb empty trailer to it and put a 25,000-lb backhoe on the trailer, the truck needs to weigh less than 25,000 lbs if you want to remain legal.
How much does a semi-truck weigh?
16,000 - 20,000 lbs usually for the front part ("truck", "tractor", "cab"). But the empty trailer adds several tons more. For example a 53 foot long simple box ("van") trailer weighs 10,000-15,000 with nothing in it. So a whole 65 foot long empty system (truck and trailer) weighs over 30,000 lbs. Shorter box, flatbed, and covered wagons systems would weigh less. Systems with an extra long truck or specialized systems, like some of those with tank and pumping equipment, may weigh more.ADDED: Also, state regulations can, and do, vary as far as the length of the rig and the maximum allowable weight. That is one reason you usually see "weigh stations" very close to the state lines on most interstates and other heavily trafficked highways.
What is the total weight of a 18 foot pontoon boat and trailer without brakes?
Very hard to answer because it varies depending on the weight of the boat and trailer. The best way to determine this is look up the boat model or ask the dealer who sells it how much it weighs. DO the same for the trailer. But the most accurate way is to tow the boat and trailer to a truck scale and weigh them.
How much does just the semi trailer without truck weigh?
Depends on the type. Generally, they can range between 8,000 and 12,000 lbs for the basic types which you normally see, and heavier for specialised units, such as lowboy trailers.
