Erie County
Where McKean sits
McKean is in Erie County, and the census counts 437 people here, at 764 per square mile, with a median age of 40 years.
What we know about McKean is what the census records and what Pennsylvania law requires; the yards, pits and depots we have researched elsewhere have no entry here. So the question we can actually answer is how a truck gets out, not who else might want it.
Pennsylvania weight law
That road has a number on it
That route out is where the state stops being an abstraction. Pennsylvania sets the ceiling before any local sign lowers it.
In Pennsylvania the general limit is 80,000 lb gross, vehicle or combination (75 Pa.C.S. § 4941).
In Pennsylvania the security is $6,000–$50,000 per linear mile (Types 1–2) · $10,000 per county or municipality (Type 3) (67 Pa. Code ch. 189).
In Pennsylvania, PennDOT posts limits on state-designated highways; local authorities post the rest, on the structural condition of the road (67 Pa. Code ch. 189, under 75 Pa.C.S. §§ 4902, 6103).
So what leaves McKean
That rule meets 437 people in McKean, Erie County, at a household median around $71,667 and a density of 764 per square mile. A truck sitting in a driveway here is a working asset that has stopped working, whatever the size of the place it stopped in.
What we take out of a place like this is sleeper tractors and day cabs, dump trucks and roll-offs, box trucks and flatbeds, pickups and duallys, and the service and utility bodies that outlive the business that bought them.
