Tex; your curb weight is the correct number from GM, but I do not buy it.  What weighs 4700#?  Yes, the I5 is listed at that weight, but is that dry, Base, Lux, Adventure????  It cannot be including any accessories because I weighed my Adventure so I know what mine weighs.  More on this from a post I put up in the Alpha v I5 thread a ways back: 
"The press releases want you to believe (ya right???) that the Alpha is a mere 151 lbs heavier than the I5 H3.   Supposedly 100 #s attributable to the engine and appx. 50# attributable to the iron front differential?????   The Alpha is listed as 4851 lbs.  The I5 H3 4700 lbs.

I don't have an Alpha and don't know what it really weighs?  I do know what my H3 Adventure weighs with a little more than half a tank of fuel, front GM splash guards, factory trailer hitch, stock wheels w/ 33s and my regular stuff in it (fire extingusher, flash light, some CDs, a rag, rear cargo mat, and Husky liners front and rear, etc...) 4,840#s.  I got no brush guard, no nerf bars or rock rails, no roof rack or rails, no under belly protection pkg., nothin.....?  How are they arriving at the official GM curb weight???????  Bone dry, and emtpy?  B.S. "

If anybody else scaled their 3, please post your actual weight here.  I find this interesting.
