J-Body....They usually rate stuff like that way below its maximum capacity just because they know the nature of people in general----which is push "everything" to its limit.....
Besides.........thats why you're paid the big bucks
so you can stand underneath and repair all the messes us do-it-yourselfer's get halfway into...then figure out we can't finish

Just got back from the dump and the wieght was #7340. Had a 1/4 tank of fuel, two adult's (i'm 220lbs 
) and a dog. So it's a safe guess that it wiegh's in 6900lbs.
