My 2 ton 59 6500 had a weight of ca 2700 kilos when I bought it. they checked that in custom.

So about 2,7-3,5 maybe, depending on the weight of the bed.
I have just a flat wooded bed.

The problem wasn't weight, it was size. 2.41 meters wide, 2.2 high, and 8 meters long ... smile First they tried top haul it with a ordenary trailer... they gave up, and used a more suitable truck:

Try to ask for a good enough truck... or else they might have to try twice smile

Good luck.. /Ulf
