They say a bullet is 8800lbs dry weight. So with a trailer gear and fuel that's a lot more to add to it.

Until it pushes the head gaskets, or burns up the ficm. They actually run pretty nice, and have good power when everything is fixed and right. But damn those things can cost a small fortune to keep running

Correct, aluminum 3-axles trailer from Manning Marine weights 2050 lbs on the scale. So, 10'900 lbs including Bullet with half fuel.

Nice truck. Traded my Ford (6 uh oh) for a 16 Denali Diesel earlier this year. Best move I ever made. I think in the time I had it I went through 3 FICM units, multiple glow plug harnesses, the head gasket deal, and a ruptured oil cooler. Still loved the sound of them, just dont care to drive them anymore
