#4 Fertilizer trucks? I understand a lot of the Afghan bombs lately have been McVeigh specials.

#5 That's 30,000 Kg per truck, or about 66,000 pounds. You could get that much in a semi, but don't expect any high-speed maneuvering. That would be pushing the limit for most US highways. I doubt many bridges in Pakistan are designed for that kind of weight.
