Here's another weight reducer, delete stereo, speakers, and wiring. Free. Dump water from the windshield squirter. Run with only two gals of gas in tank. With your estimates, this will now get you easily below 2600. Heck the gas alone will drop more than 50 lbs, more than any single item listed!
Just don't blame us when you're out in the boonies, stuck in a ditch, windshield covered in mud, tire blown, cold because engine doesn't run from no gas, and listening to the wind whistling through the trees.
