Did somebody weight theirs 2004 dodge2500 diesel if so can you tell me the weight.Thank you.

 

New and empty mine was 7080 with almost a full tank. 4300 front; 2780 rear.

Mine's probably gained 500 lbs with all the "stuff" in/on it now.

There are a lot of weights posted.

BTW, Welcome to the boards!!!

 

I must have too much stuff in mine. My '01.5 weighed 6900. My '03 weighs 7200.

 

My 01 weighs in at 7680 with a full load of fuel and tool box. I don't think my tool box weighs 500 or 600 pounds.

 

Its not that hard to fill up the truck with weight. From nerf bars, caps/deck lids, hydraulic jacks, jack stands, chain, air compressor, tools, extra ball mounts, etc. it all adds up.

None of the weight bothers me - and I still got 19mpg yesterday and today running 75 on the slab - my 'stang can barely do that at 75.

 

geez! i really feel like a light - weight! my 97 only weighs in at 6250 with about 1/3 fuel in the tank. well, on the brighter side, ill see your headlight *behind* me in the 1/4 mile!!

 

One of my customers is a metal recycling station, to get to him I had to drive across the scale so that when I leave they can tell if I stole any scrap metal, 7160# both times, with a 1/2 full tank. This was Tuesday PM

Mine was 7,120 with myself and a full tank of fuel...that was before I added my toolbox so I probably have 300-400 lbs more of stuff in it now.

 

Remember "Apples & Oranges" folks!!!...

Petei, the originator of the question, really needs to describe his vehicle, which will vary consideraby with options... i.e. ...

Quad Cab or 2dr.???... 4X4???... Auto or manual???... 'Heavy-Duty" susp./tow pkg.???... wheel style???... That's why the above answers vary considerably...

Weighing in on a good scale, I can tell you the exact weight of my 2004... 2500 Series... Quad-Cab... Cummins 'B' Ragburner... 4X4... Automatic... Chrome over steel wheels (much heavier than cast aluminum)... It weighs 7880 #'s with me (200), full fuel (245), canopy (100)... Thus 7880 - 545 = 7335 #'s net "dry" from the factory... Obviously, your truck will weigh this number only if built the same...

No kidding Ted. All he has to do is look at sig blocks to see where the diffs are at. My factory fresh SLT shorty was 7080 empty. No need to subract any weights for correction factors. This ain't rocket science here.

 

Can anyone tell me how heavy a load can the 2500 or 3500 pull and what kind of mileage you'll get with a load on?

 

I must have a light truck. MY 2WD weighed in at 6780 at the wood chipping place I take my brush to.

 

I get about 15mpg pulling an 8,000 lb box style, two axle utility trailer.

I get about 19mpg pulling my 3,500 lb boat, single axle trailer.

Your mileage WILL vary quite a bit depending on speed and how streamlined your load is. I suspect that I could get very close to 19mpg with an 8,000 lb boat as well.

 

2wd's are much lighter , they don't have an extra driveshaft. lol
