Mahindra 2538 tractor weight

[dwalk19]

Anyone know what a 2016 mahindra 2538 with loader weights,(non loaded tires) looking to move it long distance and trying to figure out the weight, I'm hoping a 20' 7000gvw dovetail trailer will be fine and also have no issue pulling it with a 2017 silverado 5.3, thanks for the help

About 4,300 on tractor data. com

Yeah thats what I got also, kinda wishful thinking hoping it might be less

 

[Peter 315]

Why ? I think you need a bigger trailer

 

[dwalk19]

Well that's what I'm concerned about with movinh implements also

I would get a 10k or 12k trailer 22 foot deck Whats you truck rated to tow

 

[dwalk19]

2017 silverado 5.3, i'd say around 9k to be safe

 

[Peter 315]

Whats the empty weight of the trailer?

 

[Peter 315]

Trailer is 2000lbs, it's my father in laws truck I'm assuming it's just the standard 5.3 eco tec3 to be safe, I think the truck shoukd be fine either way, I'm more concerned with the trailer, I'm right at the max, and trying not to spend the extra $$ for a 10gvw, trailer, I won't be hauling the tractor much at all,
