PowerBoost Base Curb Weight

[n8dgr8]

Has anyone weighed their 4x4 SuperCrew PowerBoost to see how it compares to the advertised 5,517 lbs base curb weight?

Significant tax savings in my county if the truck weighs > 6,0001 lbs on an official scale. Modifications are allowed: you can add a tonneau cover, bike rack, lights, bumpers, winch, etc. Seems like 5,517 lbs is getting pretty close to 6,000 lbs.

Im not sure if this will be of any help, but as you can see, truck weighs over 6000 before I added a quad fold fiberglass tonneau cover and LineX box liner. Mind you I also have options that add weight that you may not have on your truck. 20 in wheels, moon roof, , fold flat seats, skid plates hands free driving as well as tow mirrors. Plus a few minor weight gains in ww liners, mud flaps, weather tech floor mats and hood protector . Without scaling it I would guess my payload will be around 1100 so that being the case, truck weight would be 6250.

A platinum powerboost FX4 with max tow, bedliner, tailgate step and a sunroof should get there easy. My parents have a Powerboost FX4 tow tech with the 601a package, bedliner, no moonroof and are just under 6000.

Thanks, I forgot to account for the moonroof, power running boards, and Fx4.

Here is a ticket from my truck, but with me and some equipment cases in the backseat. I'd say my weight and the cases in the back were about 400 pounds altogether. My truck is a powerboost XLT 302A with 7.2KWh, max tow, long bed, supercrew, 4x4, tow mirrors, 360 cams, tailgate step/work surface, power adjustable pedals, co-pilot 360, and the interior work surface. I also have an HD RAS, which was probably about 35 pounds. This was also with a full tank of gas.

Obviously the Base Curb weight listed for a Powerboost wouldn't include any options that are not standard. However, since the Platinum has a LOT of standard equipment, it starts hefty. Lol

Panoramic roof adds 60lbs.Tailgate step is 40.
That's a quick 100lb hit

I have a document with the weight of each option, if that helps anyone

@n8dgr8 how did you get to that screen? Is that the towing screen?

That would be a handy document to review !

Way back, Ford had app , fleet app; if I remember, that gave access to that screen. Disappeared shortly after it was available and I don’t think it ever returned, sorry to say

Thanks! Much appreciated. That’s a bummer though.

If I enter either my 17 digit VIN, or last 8, the page doesn't give me any info.

Must be broken again. Last time I used it ~2 months ago it was working.

I think i saw on TFL Andrey's personal XL trim PB was around 5500 lbs. He mentioned it in one of his views when they weighed it.

I haven't been able to get it to work, either.
