How much does my truck weigh?
Hey,
I am unable to get to a weigh scale near me..and even the ones I could want me to pay..but however. I was wondering how heavy you think my truck would weigh? Here are a couple pictures of it:

If you want my .02, I highly doubt that a regular cab with a small wood flat bed is going to top 7k....I would think it would come in at just under 7k....of course, actually weighing it is the only way to end this debate!

I'm with CTD Nut. My 98 reg cab, long box with a large 1 1/2" thick steel plate for a goose neck is 7100 with a full tank of fuel. Even with the dually, I don't think it will top 7000#.

I just had my 96 4x4 2500 run across the scale - 6320lb - full of fuel. I'd guess the bed is ???? maybe 600lbs that came from DCX? You also have dually rear end so add a couple hundred for that and tires. Taking all that into account, I'd guess somewhere around the lower 6k range...

Once I have the money, and am done with the body work. I am thinking about either a box, or like a Diamond plate flat bed, with tie down hooks on the side and a head rack.

scale locations
You should look around at some feed stores or landscaping yards have scales with an outside readout for loading trucks just pull up on one of them and read it and leave they may look at you funny but no big deal. also scrapyards always have large truck scales.
