Well a KW, with DEF tank and Reefer trailer (EMPTY) but the fuel tanks are full and DEF tank at 7/8ths weighs just over 35,000 pounds.

So there might not be that much additional weight.

How much does your hypothetical driver weigh?

Well, when I weighed that tractor-trailer, empty, I weighed about 150 pounds, and I think my gear (including personal stuff, tool box and chain) weighed another 150.

Reefer:

A refrigerated trailer.
