Empty weights..
Has anyone actually weighed their truck to find out the actual empty weight?? If so, please share your findings BUT list out your truck specifics/extras (regular cab vs. quad, SRW vs DRW, additional fuel tank, tool boxes etc).<br><br>I am curious to see where this falls versus my registered gross weight.<br><br>thanks..<br><br>I did a search back for the past year but didnt find any results..

With 2 emty 55 gallon drums, a fold up cloth deer blind, and 2 empty ice chests, I tipped the COOP scale around 7,750 without me in it. Since then I have added a rear pipe bumper.<br><br>Dually<br>QC<br>Front and rear replacement bumpers<br>Brownes Headache rack<br>Weathergard Tool Box<br>Gooseneck hitch

I weighed mine out at the dump here a while back. I had about 3/4 tank of fuel with nothing in the bed other than a broom and me sitting in the drivers seat it weighed in at 7670 Lbs. I weigh right at 220 Lbs Truck has nothing added to it other than a whole lot of pride! It is a 2002 3500 4X4 quad cab SLT package.
