Default D-150 Hood Weight?

Does anyone know how much the stock steel hood weighs on these trucks?

40-45 lbs maybe. Took mine off by myself to do an engine swap. Wasn't heavy, just big, awkward....... Just like pulling the bed off by myself, short bed. Not really heavy, just big, and awkward lol........ Or maybe I just don't know my own strength, lol.
Hood really isn't as heavy as it looks.

It feels heavier than that. I'll weight mine when I get some help to take it off. I'll post the results then.

Sounds good, because I really don't know my own strength, lol. I lift and move things that other people need help with, or struggle with.
