Do you know the difference between GROSS weight and PAYLOAD weight? The weight limit on US highways is 80,000 lbs GROSS weight for 18 wheelers. Gross weight includes truck, trailer, cargo, fuel, people.... everything.

This isn’t a game of semantics or gotcha. The article said 82,000 payload. The writer of the article is ignorant of US trucking terminology and weight restrictions.

If you could stop licking Elon Music’s feet for 5 seconds, you might be able to comprehend the elementary school level mistake you keep defending.
