If your thinking is relying on published shipping weights, then you need to add in driver, full fuel and some miscellaneous. My numbers are derived from
certified scales (as are the numbers for the comparable year 4WD version from owners reporting axle readings).
Generally, add 450-lbs to shipping weight numbers. Won't matter if it's a Taurus or a pickup truck.
A 4WD Cherokee weighs
at least 350-lbs more than a 2WD.
