How would you describe an 18-wheeler What constitues a rig. Is it truck and trailer tractor and trailer or trailer and rig?
An 18 wheeler consists of a tractor (meaning something that pulls) and a trailer (meaning something that follows.) A semi tractor-trailer rig has a trailer that sits on top of the frame of the tractor on a coupling device called a "fifth wheel." The tractor has ten wheels with two on the front axle and four on each drive axle in the rear. The trailer has two axles with 4 wheels each. The tractor and trailer together are informally called a rig. Is that what you were after?
What is the overall length of a tractor and trailer?
That depends on the length of the power unit and the weight of the trailer. With a Kenworth W900L with a 265" wheelbase and a 53' stepdeck trailer, I had an overall length of 77 feet. With a Volvo VNL730 and a 48' flatbed or stepdeck trailer, I was right at about 67 or 68 feet. Heavy haul combinations can be significantly longer, but 65 to 78 feet would be about the norm for an over-the-road regional or line haul tractor pulling a single trailer.
