How much does my truck weigh?

[bigtiller]

I called my dealer and he said the build sheet says 4177 pounds. Does that sound right? I see guys here talking about 6, 7 & 8000 pound trucks. That is what got me to the question. Here are the specs.

2007 GMC 2500HD 4X4
extended cab
79 inch bed
6.0 V-8
gcwr = 16,000 lbs
gvwr = 9,200 lbs

Could be but sounds a little light for a 2500 IMO. My 2007 dodge 2500 Mega with diesel engine and tools in the back weights just over 9k pounds.

I would think more around 5k with the gas engine. Go to a truck stop with a scale and weight it up.

My 2002 Dodge Ram w/ cummins, short bed - fuel fuel, me (190#) and a cross over tool box in the bed - weighed a tad over 7200 lbs..

Your dealer is nuts. A stripped down, short bed, reg cab, 2wd is likely more than that.

There should be another sticker inside the door that has tire information. It will also list the payload capacity of the truck.

Take the 9200GVWR - whatever the payload sticker says and you have your answer +/- a few pounds. And ofcourse that dont account for whatever you added, tools, passengers, etc.

I am guessing somewhere between 5800-6200# empty

Found one site that says 3353# payload and 5847# curb weight

Yea, should be north of 5000lbs, my tundra weighs in at 5500 give or take after looking into it.

According to NADA, a similar crew cab (not ext.) has a curb weight of 5857 lbs. Yours should be close.

A little more searching and I found this. 5847 lb. for the ext cab 6.0

Does the title and or registration not have a GVW stated?...I thought some states used the GVW on the title to determine how much the tag tax is...?
