Impotent!? Hmm.. is that not when little guy does not work?!?!?
I'm going sailing in some 15-25 knot winds, 2-4'waved here in puget sound, I'll deal with collateral damage after words!
But, the ford base weights if like GM, final weight hast be plus minus 5 or 10 lbs of ALL options added at the end. This is tighter than most scales troops,or other local scales use at 20 lb increments.
Reality, at least where I'm at, got new registration for my new to me 1500, I'm legal to 8000 lbs. Door sticker is 7000 or so. My navistar is good to 26000, door sticker and axl ratings give me 18200. Been pulled over at 27000. No over weight ticket. Just a 10 day up registration to 28000. $15 or so. ooohhhh, that hurt me pocket book! In real world, door sticker means squat!
