Ah hah. Thanks for clearing that up. Anywhere on the car does it state exactly what my car weighs? Also, if it weighs 3,500 pounds that only leaves 1,000 extra pounds that the car can carry. What happens when you exceed that, say when a giant couple at 400-pounds a piece get into the back seat and you've got 100 pounds load in the trunk plus your own weight.
