I'm really amazed at how much everyone's weight varries. I mean there have been several ECSB 2WD's on here and the weight is all over the place. Same thing with the RC's. It's like a Jenny Craig convention up in here.

I've asked for it before, but this just drives the point home, that we need a weight column on the FTL! Just because you say EC doesn't mean its heavier than a RC!

There is a weight column on there. I was the first to be on it.

Yeah, but all the previous numbers should be taken with a HUGE grain of Kosher salt!

I go to a trucking yard. You drive up on the scale and pay $5 and they give you a ticket with your weight. Maybe a U-Haul place would have a scale?

Has anybody had thier truck on some "real" scales, like the ones they use to dial in crossweight and what not. You know, the 4 independent ones. I'm curious to see what the weight distribution is. I've heard 70/30 front/rear, but I don't know if that's true for all types of trucks.
