It came up on the scale @ 7770. I'm 6"3 235lbs so you can subtract that (7535), but I had just put 34 gallons in the tank and filled it all the way up the gas cap.
This was something I searched for and found a lot of discussion about but not a lot of actual #'s.
I did it at a local rock and sand company. They have a scale that you drive on before you load your truck up with dirt or rock. Not sure if it's 100% accurate but thought I would post it.
The truck had nothing else in it.

Curb Weight = 7313 lbs with all fluids including fuel.
7.29lbs is the weight of a gallon of diesel but if you filled it to the cap it should be 40 gallons, mine is on my 06 2500 with the 34 gal capacity tank.
7313 + 235 + 43.74 = 7591.74 (Any other things in there, maybe scale is off a little?)
P.S. the curb weight listed should be for a Dually, mine is 6862lbs.

Uh Yeah,
Mine was 8400 with the wife and kids in it. Kids weigh 240 total, I weigh 220, wife weighs , uh, well 120 give or take a little.
So subtract the weight of me and the fam, (620) and my truck weighs 7780. Single rear, Line-X, nerfs, 5th wheel hitch, mud flaps, empty ash tray, half tank fuel, no bugs on the windshield.
Deal with it. These things can't carry a sack of apples without being overloaded.
