Weight Loss Regime
I'm putting my Bird on a diet. I want it light as possible while still maintaining some comfort. From looking at the door tag my GVWR is 4448 lbs. I read somewhere that if you multiply 180lbs X (Max number of Passengers[5]) and then substract that from the GVWR you get an approximate weight of your vehicle. Now how much truth is in that I do not know, but it is my starting point of 3550 lbs. Also as I pulled parts off I weight them with a mere bathroom scale so these are just estimates.
