1. A light-weight truck trailer comprising:
two longitudinal beams, each beam being a single unitary continuous piece comprising at least two cutouts cut through the single unitary continuous piece, wherein each of the cutouts independently extend vertically from an upper portion to a lower portion of the beam and extend longitudinally over a length of the beam, and wherein the at least two cutouts are defined within the single unitary continuous piece by at least one vertically extending supporting member;
a plurality of reinforcement members, each reinforcement member being connected to one of the two beams, from one end at the upper portion of the beam and from the other end at the lower portion of the beam so that the reinforcement member extends transversally across one of the cutouts,
wherein at least one of the cutouts extends longitudinally over a length of the beam, from a point at about ¼ to about ⅓ from a front end of the beam, to a point at about ½ to about ⅔ from the front end; and
wherein two reinforcement members overlap at their center to form a x-cross.
