What is the empty weight for a 26 foot penske rental truck?

The tare weight of a Penske 26 foot non-liftgate truck is 15,241 pounds. The tare weight is tough to get from Penske. Not that they're avoiding the topic, but the folks who answer the phones just don't know. After multiple calls and wildly different answers, I got to a Penske service department, where they were able to look up the tare weights. Add 50 gallons of diesel at 7.5 pounds per gallon and a 200 pound driver, and you have an "empty" truck weight of 15, 816 pounds, meaning you can put 10,184 pounds of cargo in the truck without exceeding the 26,000 GVW rating of the truck and the limits of a non-CDL driver. The tare weight of the liftgate 26 foot Penske trucks are 16,108 pounds (International) and 16,242 pounds (Freightliner), so by the same calculations, the max payload is a bit over 9000 pounds for this "10,000 pound" truck. Data is current as of June, 2017.

How much does a 26 foot penske truck weight?

The tare weight (all fluids full except just 10L fuel, no driver, no payload) of a 26 foot Penske non-CDL ramp truck is 15241 pounds. It can carry 50 gallons of diesel, so with a full fuel tank, it's about 15616 pounds. It has a max GVW of 26,000 pounds, so it can carry up to 10,384 pounds including the driver, whatever is in the cab and whatever is in the back of the truck. The liftgate versions of 26 foot Penske non-CDL trucks are about 1000 pounds heavier, and are also limited to 26000 pounds GVW. The above weights are from Penske in June 2017. You'll read in many places that the empty weight of a 26 foot Penske truck is around 13,000 pounds. This is incorrect.
