Hmmmm, a SINGLE CAB SHORT BOX and you want to race us. Come back when you have a QC and/or 4x4
Only a fool would race against you. And if you lost that would be pretty sad.
C'mon dude a SINGLE CAB SHORT BOX
Do they even make those any more? I guess for people that can't afford a NICE truck. Maybe you have one of the 1% that do run well.

I'm not talking to you jamespar, I was laughing at wildmikes post and how many times we've been over this already.
(sarcasm)
I know it is kinda funny. My Chevy 4x4 KC weighed 5000lbs 300 less then the Titan. How can a Dodge RC SB 2wd weigh 4950lb? What kind of metal is Dodge using? Granite? LOL
The weights I posted for my trucks are from the scales not a book or magazine.

My truck weighed 4880lbs with barely over 1/2 tank.
Apx. 12 gallons of fuel shy from being a full tank.
12 X 6 lbs/per gallon = 70 lbs. 4880 + 70 = 4950 lbs.
NEXT QUESTION!!!!

LMFAO
I got a QC 1500 weight is 5,295.. By a certified scale.. Also I met up with a Titan on this site.. and we were pretty evenly matched.. weight wise.. I think I did have a slight advantage... he was a 4x4 and I am a 2x4.. but it didn't matter because the 3 truck lengths I put on him.. Even if he had a 2x4 it would have still been about 2 lengths.. I think the thread is still floating around here somewhere.. It's Titled Titan goes down..
Oh yes!! That was 4880lbs on a scale. Not a magazine!
I have a hard fiberglass tonneau that weighs apx 120lbs.

Just think how many trucklenths you would beat a QC 4x4 1500 Hemi.
A 4x4 has the transfer case and front pumpkin. Both which add drag even when 4x4 isn't engaged. Let alone all the extra weight.
