trying to find the weight of a 2009 pete 386

Scale it and be sure. That said, we still don't know enough to tell you its weight. Aluminum or steel hubs? Wheels? Frame thickness? What kind of 5th wheel? Fuel tank size, additional equipment etc. Those differences alone can add up to 1500 or 2000 lbs. I'm gonna guess 17850 to 18000 w/ bingo fuel and driver gear. Well over 21,000 ready to roll with you in it.

 

I drive a 2012 and with fuel it usually weighs in at about 17955. That's with a cummins and 10 speed

 

It's been 5 years since I've weighed my 2009 but I'm pretty sure it was in the high 16's. If I could find my logbook I could tell you exactly. But like they have said there are variables. I had the big sleeper and long wheelbase too. With the reefer I could haul around 44,800.

If you just crawled in the truck go scale empty.

 

Read the tag weight then add for fuel. Should be close enough.

 

19000 09 386, 485 9 speed 3.55 gears right at 30000 with a 48 dorsey flat 50/50 combo

 

Like boardhauler said check the tag weight then add fuel weight. Are you going own authority or leasing on to someone else?

 

Tag weight is dry weight. That is no fuel, oil, gear oil or any of the liquids.

When you test drive it take it to a scale. Truck stop scale, feed store scale or whatever is available.

Surely the seller will let you do that. If not I would be looking elsewhere for a truck.
