The Dukw is 31 ft long 8' 2" wide and 8' 9" high and is 15000 lbs it will drive on and off the trailer by itself. There would be room on a normal trailer for another load like a Bobcat or something . Eddy
Thanks for all the help guys. I got it home and it ran great. Lots of power and I had to watch that I did not go over red line as it kept wanting to go faster. I am quite happy with the truck. It has one small leak when it is hot but all else seems great. Thanks again. Eddy
I am picking it up in Minot ND and there is a railroad loading ramp there I can use to load the car and I know of one here too so I can unload it. The old tarp is being used by the old owner to cover the box on it as a 2' section has been added to it. He gave me a new tarp but there are no bows...

I seem to be getting lots of conflicting info from various sources. I guess I will just have to hook up the load and see what it tows like. I do thank those who shared the knowledge with me. Eddy
Hi I am looking to find out how much a CCKW in good shape can tow. I have a triple axle trailer with brakes so stopping is not a prob. I only want to tow about 20 miles on nice flat road at a nice slow speed. Thanks Eddy
I also have a 43 ? ( Aug 27th 1942 ) CCKW it is in very good shape and all works. I am all alone up here in the great white north. I have no idea how to post a picture of it here. Eddy
