Cat Scale

We took a ride to the other side of the lake to NY today. There is a Cat Scale not far from where we were going and have wanted to weigh my truck since I have the ARE cap on it along with the stuff I keep in the bed along with the stuff under the rear seat, etc. I topped off my fuel tank before we left so it was mostly full when we got there. Weighed 8680 pounds. Paid and went on our way.

For future reference, just get the Cat Scale app. Everything done through your phone. Drive up, open the app. It will likely show the scale you are sitting on or you enter the number. It weighs you and charges to your credit card and shows you the scale numbers and emails you the results. Don't have to get out of the truck.

Looks like you have over 1000# in/on your truck. I am assuming you and possibly other people were in the truck when it got weighed?

Thanks for the info. I had the Cat Scale locator app. I didn’t know about the other one and down loaded that one. I don’t plan on going through the scales on any regular basis but just kind of wanted a baseline for my truck as it usually sits. There was 2 of us in the truck. Most of the stuff in my truck I used to carry in my last GMC 1500.

The 1000# extra makes sense since it was two of you and the shell with some other stuff
