An F250 generally has a GVWR of 9900, which is essentially 5T. It could be spec'd with a 12400 limit, but most are not. Far more common on an F350, though, to see 13000+.

I expect you're talking about curb weight. 6500 pounds for a gasser F250 is pretty typical, a bit north of 7000 for a diesel (which is 3.5T). But it's impractical to go by curb weight, the real number is GVWR. Can't tell what someone might be carrying and it all goes to the road.
