Dude what made your car weight that much? I know you used to have a ton of audio stuff but damn that's 400lbs over the listed weight on the Epiq website.

Lol it's time for it to lose some bodyfat.

Published curb weight is often measured dry and with a car with no options.

You're right. I stand corrected. Good call out!
