OK, while at the Shades of The Past car show in Pigeon Forge, there was a Ride Tech booth setup. They brought their four corner scales with them and were weighing people's cars for free. I've always wanted to know how the weight bias was on these trucks, so I decided to give it a go.

Here's what they came up with.

I've always known trucks were front heavy, so there was no big surprise to me how much difference there was. I was kinda surprised at the hefty weight, however. I kinda figured things were closer to around 3500 lbs.

Either way, no complaints. Also the Ride Tech guys were really diggin my truck. They were asking lots of questions about it and complimenting on it alot as well.

Anyone else have any weight sheets like this you want to share?
