Put mine on the scale at the track, with me (200 lbs. and a 80 lbs. tanneau cover) it weighed 4825. By the way, that was 200 lbs. of lean, mean muscle!!! Ya right.

Put mine on a track at the local dump, +-10 lbs. Lady said 5040, 3 sandbags, Line-xed bed, underlined, 1/4-1/2 tank of gas, 2 8" speaker box, and 150 lbs of skin and bones (6'1" frame).

Minus the sandbags, 4850.

If I remember correctly, one of the this Board's members works for a gravel, stone, etc. distribution site with about three or four truck scales. He said he weighed his truck empty several times with varying amount of gasoline on board, and it always weighed around 4700 lbs. He used a different scale each time. The scales are required to be calibrated periodically. I think he had the Class 3 hitch.

So, I think the advertised curb weight of 4670 is accurate. That would include about 175 lbs. of gasoline.
