...just back from dropping off a load full of scrap/rotted wood at the dump (careully packed of course...lol)....so I have another truck weight reference for those interested:
The weight of my truck via the weigh scale there was 4180 lbs. (without people/passengers- truck only)

The truck is equipped as follows:
'72, C10, 1/2 ton
8' long bed w/ trailing arm suspension (not leafs)
Relatively complete option group (ps / pb / a/c, radio, gauges, deluxe trim, etc)
350 / auto / h.duty rad / chrome rear bumper w/ hidden tow hitch.
std. tires (235-15") (w/ full spare tire on board)
Fuel load: less than 1/2

....so for sure, easily north of 2 tons..and that is an empty 1/2 ton.

All good
Coley
