Actual weights will vary widely from "internet" weights. The only way to be certain is to hit the scales yourself - every truck is going to be slightly different.

I will, however take a guess.....if it is a 2500, probably 5500 - 6200 lbs......if it is a 3500, probably 5800 - 6500 lbs.

Well , take this for starting point , i threw my truck on our portable scales ( we use them for weigh in when we harvest trial crops, they are certified to be used for trade) And it weighed in right at 6300 LBS with a full tank of fuel. This is the 95 in my sig.

If my dad's truck was there when i was doing this , i could have given you a very accurate guess, he drives a 97 2wd reg cab.

On a side note , i think 1st gens are slightly lighter, my buddys 93 W250 reg cab , with his plow riggin on it , came in at 6280LBS (can anyone say braggin rights for me )

Right at 6500lbs with me and a half tank of fuel. I would guess 5800 or so.
