I ran my truck across some CAT scales in Franklin KY and it weighted 6720lbs with me and a full tank of fuel.



Does that sound right :confused:

Oh yeah, standard cab and 12 missing valves--right on! :-laf
 
Last scale was 7,130 1/2 tank fuel, loads of stuff under the seat, and me in the other at 197lbs. I also have a spray in liner and a full 3/8 thick rubber matt about 80lbs. Full tank of propane about 60 lbs. OverFueled
 
Truck used to weigh 6780 with 1/2 tank. Now its up to 6930. I added a lot of wiring,a snow plow mount,Darrins steering stablizer,4" exhaust,Rockford 600 watt system with 2 10" subs,N20 system,etc... ... ... ... ... .....
 
6630 with 1/8 tank fuel and no driver. Most tools and chains removed.



Mileage AVG is mid to high 18's with some 19's and 20's, but never below 17. 0 -and that's usually pulling some small something.



Has brushguard, toolbox, bed rails, 265's on factory aluminum.

6660 lbs with me in it (I'm 210 of that) and 1/2 tank of fuel. Getting a little under 19 MPG so far, but I've only filled it twice since owning it.

milage @ weight

Well not to much city driving but with 14" running boards and a piece of baler belting on each side and a bought 4400 + kgs for weight I get usually 20 to 23 to the US gallon . I have burned as little as 72 ml per kilometre but this was at over 11,000 ++ pounds at about 65 mph. :D :D Couldn't have a gas engine any more. too expensive. . :D
 
8140 with me and a full tank

but look at my pics and you will see why... Toolbox, front and rear pipe replacement bumpers, NV5600 transmission, and all the stereo goodies... makes for a heavy 3/4 ton...

Weighed mine at the landfill scales

My truck is a 4x4 extracab short box set o twins and missing a battery with a full tank it weighed in at 6820lbs Merv
 
Mine weighs right around 7430 lbs. That includes me, the wife, 2 Chihuahuas, 5er hitch and tool box with not too much in it. Think I might have to dump the dogs.
 
Weight...

8260 pounds! :--) Full fuel, driver, and standard complement of carry-on's. My regular cab is weighing as much as a quad cab!



All those accessories sure tipped the scale. Now I wished I had a 3500 SRW? :(



6523 pounds was original registration weight.

Empty Weight

8,400 lbs. Full fuel, tool box. The breakdown is 4,780 front axle, 3,620 rear. Without exceeding the capacity of the stock 17" tires it leaves me a carry capacity of 9,114. Getting ready to switch over to the 19. 5" for the extra capacity.
 
7,000 with a full tank of fuel, me, RanchHand front end replacement, tool box (mostly empty at the time), gooseneck hitch. 6 235 tires instead of standard 215s.
