Curb weights sourced from the NHTSA Canadian Vehicle Specifications database and recorded per body style, with fluids and a full fuel tank but no occupants or cargo.

Front and rear axle loads

At 57/43, the 3,878 lbs puts about 2,210 lbs on the front axle and 1,668 lbs on the rear — 542 lbs more over the front wheels, which is what front tires and front brake pads wear against first.

How the figure moved since 2015

The lightest 2015 record is 3,827 lbs; the lightest 2020 record is 3,878 lbs — 51 lbs heavier (1.3%).

At the top of the range the 2020 file reaches 3,909 lbs against 4,001 lbs in 2015, a 92 lbs reduction — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.

What is not in the record

EPA files 5 separate 2020 entries for the model, spanning 20–41 mpg combined, covering 5 engine and drive combinations (2.0L 4-cyl AWD; 2.0L 4-cyl FWD; 3.0L 6-cyl AWD; 3.0L 6-cyl FWD; and others) plus their transmission choices, while NHTSA weighs only 2 configurations. Engine and gearbox choice is therefore not reflected in the figure above.
