how much does my car weigh? i always heard around 3200 lbs, but on the inside of the drivers side door jam it says something like a total of 4000. does someone know what this means? front and rear gross weights or what ever it says, that is frustrating my mind. thanks.

 

yea i would like to know how much the car weights and what can i lose from the car to lose wieght

 

Your car weighs anywhere from about 2950 (GXE) to about 3100(GLE) pounds. Your SC and other mods of course add more weight. The numbers on the door jamb tell you the maximum weights that each axle will safely accomodate. Add the two numbers together to find out who much weight the car will safely carry, including gas, passengers and luggage.

 

My car weight 3266 with me in it ..and NO gas
so figure it's prolly 3066 w/o me

GVW, or gross vehicle weight is the maximum load for your car. What that means is you should never put anything in or on your Max that would make it weigh more than 4000 lbs.

 

Delos .. next time you run at etown.. the scale is on the right hand side before make that turn to pick up your slips

 

thanks for the information. it is a help. but is their a place where i can READ these facts about the cars weight, before we add any weight to it? don't you think this info should be available somewhere? by the way there is a place near me where i can take the car to be weighed. i will do this when i get a chance. and then i will post it on this website. but if anyone finds out this info, could you let me know. thanks again, delos
