Ya, or theres usually a scale at any landfill/dump

Where do you go to weigh the car? Can I just go to a truck stop and drive on the scales that the 18 wheelers use?
Yes, I specifically remember being called out for suggesting such nonsense.I think it's funny that the more people weighing their cars the more they seem to be much lighter than first anticipated.
Fellow member, murphyslaww, weighed the base manual GT at 3593lbs.I am glad to see people weighing their Mustangs. I hope more Mustang owners can provide weight numbers for their Mustangs. Be interesting to see what the lightest combination is out there.
corner weighting scales show my non-PP, non-Premium, stock cloth seat V8 GT to weight 3593. Fuel down to almost zero, 3 miles to E, and trunk junk removed. Mats still in.

My Magnaflow Comp catback was around 51lbs. Did you weigh the connectors/bolts/nuts ? I think I had 48 lbs without them.
So 3593lbs on empty tank, trunk junk removed & aftermarket exhaust. I give him credit for explain how he got his weight down from the factory weight.Fellow member, murphyslaww, weighed the base manual GT at 3593lbs.

That could be possible Full Tilt weighed their non-PP GT with a full tank and it was 3694. Fuel load has to be more than PP options I would think.Yes, I specifically remember being called out for suggesting such nonsense.
Someone on here claims his GTPP was 3670lbs... That is very light.
