Ever weigh your truck?

I had my T100 on a scale yesterday while buying gravel. With me and a 1/2 tank of gas, 2245 kilos (4950 lbs). Had no idea it weighs that much.

Find the local dump. They would probably weigh your truck if you ask. I was buying gravel which they loaded into the back of my truck. They weigh before the load and again after. I paid for how much more the truck weighed, almost a ton of gravel.

If I recall my 92 was about 3890lbs.

Bone stock 95 4 cyl, with about 1/2 tank and my 165 lbs in it weighs about 3550.

EDIT to add that the truck is a 2WD regular cab model with manual trans, probably the lightest configuration.

I assume it makes a big difference if you have the 2WD or 4WD. Also, for the T100 I believe the 2WD has a 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton model.

So for your GVW to mean anything by way of comparison we would need to know if your truck is:

2WD 1/2 ton
2WD 3/4 ton
4WD
Xtra cab
manual vs automatic

At any rate, mine is clearly very heavy. '97, 4x4, SR5, Xtra-cab, 5-speed manual, 3.4L, supercharged, w/AC, w/o ABS, tow package, rear locker, ARB front bumper.

A magizine I have about the history of the hilux says stock 84 weighs 3300. Mine weighs 3900 with me and my dog with all the extras. When I put my camper shell made by CARAVAN in Reno it weighs 5300 with my stuff. I just drove down to AZ to go to LCE, from Montana .I filled up in Idaho Falls and drove all the way to MM# 200 on I-15 on one tank (I have saddle tanks so I can drive my tanks dry, 19 gals) I got 16 MPG pulling a 450lb. trailer with another 800 lbs of engines. My air fuel ratio gauge had a very steady stoich reading all the way down to Las Vegas then it was running a bit lean. I got my carb jets just right.
