Okay here is the deal i need to rent a skid steer for my massive landscaping project i have going on. I need to rent a machine that weights 6300 LBS I am pretty sure my truck can not do that. Here are the numbers that i have for the truck I am not sure what they all mean but here goes:
GVWR 6100/2761
Rear 3550/1810 Front 3190/1447
Does this mean i can tow 6100 lbs? Or does it mean i can tow (6100-2761) 3339 lbs?
So if i can tow 6100 pounds (hold off and the beat down, I know not to ever do this any other time) would it be alright if i rent this machine and tow it about 2-3 miles with the truck (really close to rental place and all 35mph). They even though are close they want another $150 for deliver and pick up.
They will not allow me to drive the machine down the road either that was my first thought.
For some reason i can not wrap my mind around this I have read the posts and still am not getting it. So can someone help me out with this?
Thank you
