Default what does your jkur weigh?

I have a 2011 jkur with a hard top and six speed trans., best info I can find says it weighed 4300 lbs stock, add a full tank of fuel and that should go to 4400 lbs. With all of my mods I am at 5500 lbs with a full tank. I am just curious where others are at weight wise and with what mods? I think most all of my mods are listed in my profile, there might be a couple I have not added yet.

hardtop on yours? kind of confirms my estimates of my weight when I was stock, about 200 lbs difference between auto and manual.

Also just curious about others milage, the wheels, tires, lift, and gears are new to me , only on for about 1,000 miles. All of the rest has been on for some time, my milage was 17-20 depending on type of driving. It is a little early to get a true average yet but I am seeing 14-16 now, but it has been mostly short trips and local driving sense the wheels, tires lift, and gears.

TTT

any one else have the weight of their jkur? Trying to see where I am at, weight range wise. I know I am not running lite, but am I middle of the road, or running heavy to really heavy?
