Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Sir: Is there any way to verify the exact weight? I'm interested in your shipment but at 9000 lbs, it places me very close to my trailer GVWR. I'm a Missouri based motor carrier with DOT authority and all required insurance. If you're interested please review my profile and you can verify my DOT# & insurance at ...http://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/CompanySnapshot.aspx.. Thank you / Don (6/30/2006)
Response: Hi Don - I did win the auction so I'll definitely have to ship this puppy. The weight is as the seller put in the listing, the "operating weight" from the manufacturer's specifications, 8500-9000#. I can contact the seller to see if he has a scales or some other means of obtaining a more specific weight. I apologize for the delay in answering, I had a touch of computer trouble. Thanks ....... Tony (6/30/2006)
Question: Tony...I'm on the road at the moment and my remote Internet access is somewhat limited. I should be back to base tomorrow and I'll have an opportunity to study the load and route more closely. I'll get back to you as quickly as I can. Thanks // Don (7/3/2006)
Question: Tony...About all the data I can find on the 2650 skid loader is that it has an “operating capacity” of 5200 lbs. Would that be the load it is capable of loading? Is there anything else to ship with it? If the numbers are correct I can haul it without much of a problem. I would be using a 25’ 14000 GVWR gooseneck trailer that I pull with a Chevy diesel dually. I should be able to shift the loader forward to get some of the weight on the truck rear axle. My bid would come in at about $885 IF I can have time to get a load going out to PA. I was probably not too far from you yesterday. I hauled a tractor & some equipment for a local dealer to Mount Vernon. I’m located about 45 miles west of Cape Girardeau. I’ll call the place where you bought the loader tomorrow & see if I can get any additional details. It would be a couple of weeks before I could get to your loader. I’m scheduled to deliver a truck in Montana next week. Anyway, I hope we can do business. Thanks / Don (7/4/2006)
Response: Hi Don - The best I've found so far is data on a newer model, 2650-D, which is supposed to have a heavier frame and engine. Data at http://www.hupfsrepair.com/Pages/HydraMac.htm This heavier one is spec'd at 9860#, so I'd guess the 9000# for my older model is darn close. Nothing else would be shipping with it. And there's no rush at all on this beast, so no prob lining up a load for the trip out. Bye ..... Tony (7/4/2006)
