I just checked that tire sticker, and it says 1,646 lbs. There are really no changes, other than the tires that should change it that much, I would think. Maybe I will still find a scale, and just...

I just might, thought on a diet right now that see's me consuming no grains, dairy, sugar, alcohol, processed food, legumes, and a few other things. On day 13 of 30, and not dead yet. :)

I have one of those Charlie, but I thought it was only tire specific, but I will have a look. Headed out to look at some houses right now, but will report back when I return.

How would options add up to #00 lbs? Most of my options are decorative. The 20" tires, up from the 18" stock would be about the only big thing, and that can't be 100 lbs total.

I guess I would want to weigh it before I put much of anything in, or on, the truck. Other than driving a 250 km on it last night, it has a full tank of gas, which I assume is payload.

All it shows the is the GVWR, and the GAWR of both axles, for weight ratings. Am I missing something. I would like to confirm the payload rating, as it makes sense it can differ with options, but I...

Yeppers Jim, I just picked it up an hour ago.

No, I got it from the manual. Mine is on the top rating in the bottom right box. It is a 157" wheelbase 4x4, with a 7,050 GVWR, thus the 2,010 Payload...

The payload rating is 2,010 or 2,420, depending on the GVWR of either 7,000 or 7,600, and I kinda forget which one I have. I do think it is the lighter one, as I don't believe it has the payload...

Took a shot of it just a bit ago, when I went up to sign some stuff. Parked pretty tight, so not a great photo. Just a phone shot too. Should get it tomorrow. Will take a few more when after I pick...

The difference is actually only 1 mpg highway, and the same in the city. This is what it said on the window stickers for the same trucks, with the two engines too.

Words of wisdom, Carl. I have no doubt on what you say.

Which engine do you have in your truck?

The supercab is not bad, as we really don't carry more people all that often, but I don't like having to open both doors to let the dog in, or even just to access.

No, I went with 4x4. On the Lariat you have the option of 2WD, 4WD, and AWD as well.

Yeah, it is quite nice. up to 3,500kg towing capacity with the 3.2L diesel. For towing a 5.0, you most likely could not use the double cab, as the box is to short though, and I likes me a 4 door...

Ruby red, baby! :)

It is a bit big, but nowhere near as big as my F350 that I had at the rally. I think that photo (taken from a low position) of Fords was meant to make it look more ominous.

A bit big for her liking, but she will be fine after a while. We now plan to sell both our cars, so will become a two pickup household, and this will be the smallest.
