Message: [QUOTE="markfuga, post: 977649, member: 10964"] Went out on the maiden voyage today and swung by the bulk mulch yard so I could get on the scale while the dump bed is still off the truck. It weighed in at 7800 pounds which surprised me because it weighed 9000 pounds with the bed. I thought the bed weighed closer to 2500 pounds, so surprised to learn it only weighs around 1200 to 1500 pounds. I’ll get back on the scale after the bed is back on to confirm the actual weight. The brakes are great and the truck cruises effortlessly in any gear. I went up a long, reasonably steep grade in 5th (overdrive) and accelerated the whole way up, never had to down shift. Next on the “to do” list is to close up the hole around the shifter boot. The noise coming in got a little unbearable by the time I got home. I’ll need to fab up a piece of sheet metal to close in around the top of the transmission so the shifter boot can be screwed back down. [/QUOTE]
