Weight issues

Anybody got a number on how much a 1968 F100 115 inch wheelbase truck weighs. Also any opinions on whether or not a 66 Ford Falcon sedan weighs less. Thanks

Since posting my original question I found that my gross vehicle weight is 5000 pounds, since it is a half ton pickup does that mean I subtract a half ton to get my curb weight? 4000lbs? Thanks

A Falcon SHOULD weigh MUCH less than a full size truck. My shortbed '69 was 4100 with me. It's a big block truck.

A Falcon should be really light compared to a full frame vehicle. Maybe 3200# ??
