i think they're in the upper 3600 to upper 3700 range. they're not heavy by todays standards at all. still heavier than yesterdays cars though.

 EDIT
i just went and looked at the door jamb of mine. she's GVRW at 4600.

Roger, I was close. :)

If you like to race farmalls than I guess you can put it there as well.

You do know what engine that is, right?

Any list that doesn't list the chevy SB at #1 is inherently invalid.

never driven one I liked. eg. the bmw twin turbo straight 6 diesel is ok, but still laggy and boring with no throttle response compared to  the 3l straight 6 petrol which is a peach.

 WHEN I used to drive tow trucks, the shop i was at had a couple of super duty fords, with the 7.3 turbo diesel, one with an auto trans, one 5 speed.

 the 5 speed was amazingly quick, considering the weight of the truck. didn't feel it, but you'd look down at the speedo, and rather quickly decide to back down a little, before ya got nailed.
