I've owned this truck for like 1.5 years now and haven't taken any pictures of it yet. So while it's clean and I wasn't doing anything I snapped a few and also went to the cat scale at the truck stop to see what it comes in at.
It's a 2016 Crew Cab LT model with cloth seats. I lowered the truck 1.5in front and 3in for the rear. Has running boards and tonneau cover and spray in bedliner for add on's. This weight is with 3/4 tank of fuel without me in it. I kinda just wanted to know for myself really and I plan to go to a semi local 1/8th mile at the end of April just for fun on their test and tune days.
Also bought a brand new helmet but still need to buy the shaded visor for it.
It's a 4X4 truck. I'd say with the add on's it like 80-100lbs heavier than it could be and I had maybe 20lbs worth of just random stuff it but not like that really matters.
I have the HP Tuners Track Addict App on my phone just for kicks and so far it's said I've done 0-60 in as fast at 6.0 seconds with my fastest 1/8th at 9.001 seconds.
So I'm thinking I can be under that time for sure because I have yet to test that app with a full tank of E85 and in some nicer weather. It's too cold outside right now to even think about traction on the street, I just blow the tires off for the first 50+ feet.
Hey man, I wasn't saying she shouldn't weigh that. I was just surprised to see she weighs nearly pound for pound what my Tahoe weighs, and my Tahoe has 5 E range tires, fabricated DOM bumpers, 9.5" rear swap, extra (albeit aluminum) skids, tons of sound insulation and an extended fuel tank (also aluminum)
all that typed out, she sure as **** does not run 9.0 in the 1/8 lmao. Maybe 12.0 😂
I don't remember if I did tried to read what GM says the weight was from the factory but I was thinking around 5,300lbs, so it would be semi close to that if I removed everything like the running boards, bed cover and went on the scale with 2 gallons of fuel in the tank lol.
I didn't really have any immediate plans for more mods at the moment. I would like to do 50% tint on the front windows someday and probably just some other random small stuff I can't think of at the moment. More power would always be nice and the more I think about it, a 6.2 swap is always cheaper than a turbo/supercharger kit.
You can definitely feel the added weight with this generation, my 2006 feels half the size.... I will say my 17 4x4 bone stock pulls harder than my 2006 two wheel drive street tuned 5.3 Sierra despite being a pig. Guessing most of the weight is insulation and safety crap... they're a lot quieter and have a lot more crash tech nowadays.

Thanks for sharing. I've been wondering how accurate those weights were, I read the same thing you did and mine is supposed to be closer to 5100. Have no idea what fuel level that's supposed to be at though.

Took some pictures, went to the scale.
