A common question any man has heard if he is married.
No particular relation to a "tech forum"... but nonetheless it served as a title to this particular thread I started. And the reason for this is because I just found out how much my car REALLY weighs. I work across the street from a company that does alot of truck shipping... and well... they weigh things. So at lunch time me and a bud rolled by to see if the coast was clear... and it was. So I rolled it on and we got out.... to our surprise the car clock in at 3010 pounds!! Half tank of gas... and a baby seat to boot.
Maybe this isn't a big revelation to some... but I was surprised. I'd have guessed closer to 3300/3400 lbs.
My car is a 67 Fastback for the record... 289, 8", T5. All steel.
Just thought I'd share....
