I think the ECSB is in the 52XX range and the RCSB is in the 42XX range.

A 2WD crew cab with a 5.3 and LT trim weighs 5,080. I imagine the crew cab puts about 100 pounds on the extended cab. So roughly 4,980 for your truck?

I weighed my 2006 Extended Cab 4WD with LT3 trim and a Vortec Max when I got it. It weighed 5,220 with 3 gallons of fuel used from a 26 gallon tank.

I know this is not exactly what you were asking for, but it might help.

My 5.3 RCSB weighed 4350 lbs. with full weight (spare tire, jack, tailgate, etc) and 3/4 tank of gas. Pretty heavy I think.

Heh, GMC lists my curb weight at 5,754lbs (i bet if i had it weighed it would push 6,000+) but then again not too many things on the road are heavier than me.

media.gm.com has some weight numbers on trucks. It's my impression they weigh base models, so you'll see wacky things like the Extended cab STANDARD (6'6") box weighing LESS than the extended cab SHORT (5'8") box. In that example the explanation is that the standard-box truck was weighed with its base engine (the 4.3L v6) where the short-box truck was weighed with its base engine (the 5.3L v8).

From what I've seen on that site:
- Add about 300lb for 4wd.
- Add about 300lb for Extended cab.

According to them, I believe an ECSB 4x4 weighed just under 5000 (0 fuel).
