So I went to the local CAT scale to get my truck weight, came up to 6,360 lbs.

Thought it would closer to 7,000 or more. My truck was empty, had a full tank of diesel, and I was not in the truck (couldn't reach the call button from the cab). I have a Line-X bedliner, and a camper shell.

Anyone know what the weight of a fairly stock 2nd gen Ram is?

1882

I recall mine being around 7500 with me in it, bed liner and 37" tires. 4x4 makes a difference as well.

Mine runs about 7500 as well.

I weighed in at 7160 at the local metal recycler, with me and a couple batteries in the truck

The last time I scaled, I was 14,400. But I had a bit of a trailer as well. Never have scaled truck empty. Never had a reason to.

Mine is somewhere around 6900-7000 excab and 4x4.

And I thought my 91 was a lard butt at 5800.

I weighed my svelte little long bed MEGA Mega cab 3500 dually 4x4 with my skinny lil carcass in it and a full factory tank of fuel at two scales in the past 3 months.
The commercial CAT scale put me at 8400 pounds.
The DOT scale north of the city put me at 3900 kilograms or 8580 lbs.

When I had all my gear ...2 tool boxes, hitches etc I was over 9000 lbs.

Still, at that weight I can eek out an honest calculated 20 mpg if I keep the speed under 65 mph. 70 gets me 18.5. 75 it will drop to 16.x

I think the next thing for me is a free spin kit.

Already did the diet and dropped 34 pounds off my lil carcass.
