I'm going this friday to HRP hopefully
plans for lightening are:
remove tailgate
remove spare
maybe take out back seat
make sure I have less than half a tank
I dunno how much weight I should shed exactly by doing so, but I'm guessing about 35 for the tailgate and 45 for the tire, back seat is at least 40, half tank a gas is 80 lbs. so really, that's about 200 lbs give or take 20 or so I guess. 2 tenths is a big diff IMO.
