You cant "reasonably" get to 3000 lbs with this vehicle.
You can get the net weight from the owners manual.
My guess with batteries and back seat, just short of 1000 lbs. And 4 250 lb adults, another 1000 lbs. Gross 2000 lbs and you are really overloading it at that point.

Check out Feed Stores and Grain-Plants too.Anywhere that has a Certified-Scale can give you a weight-slip that the DMV will accept.The 3000 lb.-GVW is the Maximum Loaded-Weight:(Cart,Driver,Passengers,Acceesories,Cargo,F uel,etc...)

The transfer stations are usually free to get weighed.

I would go with the grain elevators. They will do it for a few bucks with a print out slip...

I had to get my cart trailer weighed at my local transfer station and got a slip for the inspector and was still free. Just a thought. Whatever works that is convenient is what matters.

We are good to go!! No local truck stations and the feed stores don't have printable machines for a weight slip.. but a friend via Facebook recommended a place very close, got the U-Haul truck and trailer rented, ready to go. 5x9 trailer should be fine, right?


I'm counting the days gents!! Wish I could get the plate on the same day.. Apparently title is just step one.



edit - BTW the weigh slip is $15 if anyone was curious.

I'll update - not going until the 20th. Trying to trailer it just once as I have to rent truck and trailer.

I did get lucky with the fact that the weigh station is only 4 miles away from DMV, whole trip should be 26 miles total, round trip. Hopefully will be an in and out kinda day.. we'll see.

I don't have a AS5 rated windshield, taking a chance there - but the rest is done.

more to come!
