Hello all! I am in the process of calculating GVWR and GCWR for my 2015 F-250 Super Duty and decided to get an actual base curb weight at a Cat Scale. It is a 6.7 Power Stroke, Crew Cab / short bed.I weighed with a full tank of fuel and nothing else in the truck, not even myself in the truck. It came in at 8,071 pounds. Does that sound reasonable to anyone who has weighed similar? To try and Google the weight was all over the map.
That's right about what my Ram weighs empty, also a crew cab short bed 4wd with diesel. They're not light vehicles. Stick within your axle and tire ratings and you will be good to go, btw - don't sweat the official GVWR/payload on a 250 class diesel. It's meaningless. On a 2015, anyway - I guess the newer 3/4 tons are ditching the 10k GVWR class max.
