I know its not polite to ask about her weight, but how much does your truck weigh?

2004 Dodge 3500 Q/C NV 5600 DRW
CM skirted flatbed and Southwest Fabricators bumper
Misc tools and stuff in toolboxes
Full tank of fuel plus me
8673 Lbs

 

probably around 9,600 cuz of the flatbed

 

I thought the same thing for my bed, but that's not the way it worked out.

 

Mine weighs 7100lbs empty bed, 1/4 tank fuel. I can strip it down to around 6950lbs if I remove bed mat, spare and tail gate for the drag strip.

 

I put a load of mulch in at the local recycling center and the total load was 9900 lbs! After unloading I just had to go back and find out what was just me and the truck. She was a svelte 7,700 lbs.

 

yea i have the same bed but i got an extra tranny and axle due to the 4x4 so i'm prbably about 9200 then

 

The day I drove my truck off the dealers lot I stopped by the scales near my house. With a full tank of fuel,but otherwise completely empty it was 7200lbs.

 

What we need is two identical trucks to post on here, one a 2WD and the other 4WD, then we could be sure of the added weight of the 4WD.

 

Full tank of fuel, Empty bed, and me 7560

 

other then the grill guard, well i got running boards mite be the same and the year ours are close i will have to find a scale around here and weigh

 

ok same stuff like yours except 1/4 tank fuel and 5 gal gas air compressor and soaking wet it weighs 9,220. without me about 9,200. dont know what you weigh so you'll have to figure that part and that should give the diff between the a 2x4 and 4x4

 

Last time mine was on the scales it weighed 6480.

1st gens are light. A 2wd non intercooled truck can be as light as 4500 lbs.

 

Alright so my 8673 - me = 8448 - 21 gallons * 7.3lbs = 153 lbs = 8295.
Good job on the 9200 lb estimate. 9200-8300=900lbs difference between your 4WD, air compressor, and whatever various tools you have that I don't. But I do have added weight from my bumper about (265, don't know weight of the normal bumper) and a heavier transmission.

 

The truck in my sig weighs 6880 lbs. Truck empty and a full tank of fuel.

 

My 3500 was 6960 with me in it and a 1/4 tank, so it would be about 6800 lbs. without me.

My 2500 was just under 8k, but I had roughly 1000-1100 lbs in the back, and that was around 1/2 tank. So I'm guessing under same conditions, it would be around 6800 lbs. as well.
