I have worked on computer systems used at heavy vehicle weigh stations.

Cars will weigh just as well at the stations as big rigs do. Remember they are calibrated to fine for carrying even a small amount over the legal weight.

 

I doubt it, just tell them you want to weigh your car, that's what I did.

 

That 4,200 is your car's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), it's how much your car can safely carry. Every vehicle has a GVWR, from F-350s to Kias.

Here's how you compute your car's weights, I'll do mine to show you.

GVWR 4,238
payload 701
______________________
weight of car 3,537


There are 3 sticker in your driver's door jamb, the one up top is your parts I.D. sticker. The two at the bottom are your weights. On the first one, it lists your GVWR to the left, and to the right, it lists how much weight your vehicle can carry, just do what I just showed you and you'll find out how much your car weighs.

 

thanks pops

 

Pops? Dude, I'm 21.

And please tell me you had a trailer behind your car to get 13.96 from an SS.

 

As you can tell my sig, i'm a newbie. :\
You will find, if you search through my posts, that I ask the typical noob questions. I've had my car for about 1 1/2 months now, and i've been racing for about 4 weeks. I've been to the race tracks two times, so I think i'm doing pretty good

The pops thing wasn't meant to make you out as being old, it was just my word choice ;p
