Just happened to go through some of my archives today and spotted a brochure for the 1976 Ford Trucks. Here are the curb weights.
F-100 - 3590 lbs
F-150 - 3805 lbs
F-250 - 3910 lbs
F-350 - 4515 lbs
This was reg cab for all, 6.5 ft bed for the F-100, 8 ft for the others. Back then, the XLT was considered the luxury model. The heaviest F-350, a crew cab with an 8 ft bed, 4865 lbs
