For towing purposes, if you count on a dead weight of approximately 7,500 lbs, you won't go wrong. Full tanks and a lot of extra kit obviously fleshes this out a bit, and of course T-16s are heavier by a good bit.

Yes, you can tow them behind a number of suitably-rigged North American 3/4-ton pickup trucks (ask Stewart Loy about this!), but nothing smaller is advised or really legal; many use "tilt 'n' loads" for this job, where available.
