i run a mog and if its taxed as ag then u can run a 24 ton train weight.but they are fetching a new weight catagroy in for new tractors that wil let them have a train weight of 32tons bt ur tractor has to have a test i think. wen i passed my tractor test at 16 u couldnt tow nythin wider than 2.5 meters wide bt could do a train weight of 24 ton until ur 17.
