2006 2wd E350 5.4l RB31ish build - walk through, gaucho, manual pop-top.
Two 4D batteries (what the!), 2x130w solar, 20lb propane full. 20g water, empty. 10g gray, empty. 35 gal gas tank full. 50 pounds of tools and stuff in the trunk.
7480 pounds.
Update. Just had it weighed on a different certified scale. 7473 without driver. Lighter than I thought.

Wow, you're RB is heavier than my old one, which is about 10,800 with 25 gal water and 45 gal fuel!

It blows my mind how some SMB's are 7k and others are 11k.

2006 RB, 4x4, loaded

Last time I weighed mine, almost fully loaded, was about 9,500 lbs. If I add kayaks, camera gear, misc., then about 9,650.

Mine's under 9900lbs with me, full fuel and gears. Steel bumpers front and rear, solar... I'll be adding a few 100s lbs soon with extra ALU fuel tank and extra cabinets. Still pretty decent for a chubby ass and a 7.3...

8980 with me in it. Weighed at the local landfill, and since they charge by the pound I am assuming the scale is a little on the heavy side. I am fully loaded for a camping trip. 2000 7.3l 4x4, 45g diesel fuel, 20g h2o, 3/4 full propane tank, five 285/75/16 tires, stock bumpers f/r. Wife, son, and 2 dogs will add 350lbs for a total of 9330 when we hit the road.
