There should be some "how to" sections on how to lighten these trucks up. I drive a truck for a living and we have a scale for the trucks and I can see what kind of effect I'm having. I startted with a full tank so I need to burn off some more fuel. I was at 4860 with 1/4 tank of gas and so far I'm down to 4720 with the spare gone and a few little things. I need to loose the hitch but want to be able to re-install if I need to. Can't loose the seats or kids seats. Tire changing equipment is gone. Any other suggestion would help.
