Bigfoot real weights 2500 vs. 1500
Yeah, I'm bombarding y'all with questions.
Looking at 2 different Bigfoots (feet)lol . A 2008 2500 9.4 long box, and a 2007 1500 9.5 longbox. The owner of the 2500 is listing the dry weight at 2780. Bigfoot lists current model 2500 at 2820.It has A/C, porcelain toilet, thermal windows, and skylight. With freshwater tank of 38gal and 6gal in the water heater. So, about 300# water, 100# A/C, microwave and toilet maybe 50? Total wet = about 3250#. Add 500# for stuff and 350 for folks. Minus the tailgate 50#? I'm right at my 4018# payload, I think. Your thoughts?
The 2007 1500 is claimed to be 2280#. Much smaller tank, 32 gal., assuming it hasn't changed. Has A/C. Add about 230 of water and 100# A/C and it's a little over 2600#. Plus 500# stuff and 350 folks = 3460#.
So the issue is, be right against my payload, or 500# breathing room?
My math and assumptions anywhere close?
Yes, it's very hot outside. The wife is watching cooking shows on TV, and I'm waiting on NASCAR to start!
