    I'm going for broke and saying 2100 lbs.

    Just because I'm totally clueless and that's about half of the gross weight of my puny S10.

    It's good knowledge to have for old timers and also the newbies. Good luck I will put the answer up

    I saw the thread when you posted it.. but didn't want to ruin 1 guess with "no clue" I pondered it.. milled it over.. and STILL couldn't come up with a number that would even be logical. Thanks 1956 for posting. Good to know in case I EVER have a crack at one of these things!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!
