Weight
Whats the weight difference between a super cab and super crew cab. Want to know because im having a tough time finding an 15'-17' 3.5 eb with a tow package, and there seem to be plenty of 2.7 eb that do. Is the difference negligible performance wise?

With the right rear end, the difference between SCab and SCrew in the 2.7 is minimal. But the 3.5 is rated for 3.5K more... so if you're planning to tow anything approximating a heavy load, the 3.5EB is the way to go. Order what you want.

The actually truck weight is minimal compared to what they can tow. A lot depends on rear end gearing engine transmission and options in the truck. With max tow around 12000 pounds now if you have a platinum you can only have a 150 pound person driving with a PB&J sandwich with a XL no options the a 500 pound driver and a Salami sandwich.

My truck is a 2017 SCab STX 4x4 with a 2.7L. Had it on a scale a couple weeks ago and it weighed 4960lbs. with 3/4 tank of fuel. I don’t know what the actual weigh on a similar SCrew is. Sorry I can’t answer your question more.
