2016 Tacoma weight loss?

I have heard a few people throw around the talk that the 2016 has undergone about a 300 pound weightloss.

I have read and watched every video, and while they do mention weight saving techniques (lighter rear bumper, lighter frame ect.) I have never heard them save what the actual weight of the truck is.

300 pounds is a fairly big loss for a truck that is already rather lightweight. Has anyone seen a curb weight yet for the 2016?

 

Answered my own question.

It is on page 15 of the Toyota Brochure that TFL posted.

2016 DCLB Sport 4480.

2015 DCLB 4300 pounds.

 

Wow, so it may have become a bit heavier.

 

Not a lot, but any weight gain is a bad thing.

I would have really thought hard about a 300 pound weight loss. If you have ever driven the 2015 f150 you can see the insane benefits of a lighter vehicle.

 

Is turning radius mentioned in the Brochure? DCLB?

 

It will be definitely heavier givien all the added sound deaden material and gizmos added to the truck

 

They removed about 300lbs by switching to high strength steel in the body and frame. But then they gained it all back plus some with all the new accessories, sound deadening, thicker glass, bigger diffs, heavier tailgate and various other shit that's in there now. I think the tonneau cover even counts on the curb weight. Its unclear what is and isn't included in the curb weight.
