I just looked through some of the weigh sheets I have for Ford F 450 trucks and have a large range of actual truck weights. On the low side 8,950lbs up to 10,300lbs. This was without the trailer attached. I don't show what people were carrying in the truck or box, or if the truck has an after market box on it. Size of hitch, added fuel tanks or fire wood, generator, leveling blocks all change the numbers. Also it seems different years might make a difference. What the GVWR was also ran from low of 14,500lbs to a high of 17,950lbs. So I think your going to have to actually look at the door tag on any truck your thinking of purchasing to make sure you got the 'right' number for your situation. Hope this gives you some information that might be useful.
