Assuming 60 lb per bushel (corn is upper 50's, wheat/beans around
62), that would be 132,000lbs. factor in high moisture and the
weight of a tractor big enough to move something twice the size of
what a semi can haul and that is a ridiculous amount of weight.
Watch some online videos of how fast those guys drive, its insane.<br>
