I downloaded a new application for my iPhone, and dyno app that records HP, 0-60 times things like that. It's just like the G-tech if any of you have used that. To add to the accuracy I need the wgt of my vehicle (just for grins)

2007 Silverado Crew cab 4x4 1/2 ton. Any guesses?

I'm gonna try it out on my 400EX tomorrow and see how good it works.

Just a rough guess, around 5500. I don't have an exact on mine(2000 reg cab short bed Z71) but it's right around 5000. I would figure 500 extra would cover yours!

Look at the door jam, it will tell you how much it weighs.. It's the GAWR, not GVWR.. If it doesnt combine the 2 weights, front and rear, just add them up.. My guess it's close to 5700 lbs. Thats what my 1997 gmc ext. cab 1500 series weighs

Thanks guys. I'll check that out. If I can enter a wieght of the vehicle it will give HP #'s. I tried the dyno application out yesterday. It ran a 18.43 in the 1/4 mile, these 285/70/17's really drag it down. Almost 2 1/2 seconds between 50 and 60 mph, LOL.

I gotta find a way to strap the iPhone to handlebars, so I can try my 400EX out and see what kinda times it gets in the 1/8th and the 0-60.

the door jam stickers are never right....you must put it on a scale to know for sure.

my 2x4 87 crewcab dually is 6660 pounds....so a newer 4x4 has to be near 7000pounds since my 87 has no options...not even a head liner...lol

my bronco is 6000 pounds mith me in it with a full tank of gas ( 35 gal)....you never know till you weigh it
