I just Found and Purchased a Gen-III 4X2 RC, SB Dakota, and it's at least
several Hundred pounds lighter than my Gen-III 4X4, so a GEN-IV CC V8 4X2
being a thousand lbs Heavier than a Gen-III RC,V8 4X2 is Possible....

Yeah, I've taken both to the track and weighed them. My 98 RC V6 weighed in
at 3600, the 05 CC V8 weighed in at 4600lbs.
Oh, incase anyone's wondering, the 05 is a full second faster. Fastest E/T
for the 05 is a 16.2, the 98 ran a 17.2.
