I haven't weighed mine yet. I was hoping someone in my ballpark would chime in. A 2wd 2500 ECLB. I have no idea, and have only had it for a month. I know I will have no problem towing my TT with it, just curious.

2002 2500HD in my sig weighs 6,000lbs even. That is with 1/4 tank fuel, my weight, gooseneck hitch under bed but no 5er hitch in bed, aluminum wheels. Add about 200lbs for 5er hitch.

1977 K-30 in sig weighs 5200lbs. Note here is the fact that this truck has been lightend as much as possible to compete in truck pulls. I.e. no spare, aluminum wheels, no tailgate, no back bumper, etc.

Haven't weighed anything else.

I have been intending to weigh the wife's 2001 2500HD, just haven't taken the time. Maybe I'll remember this weekend.
