              I still haven't figured out why your wagon should weigh 500 pounds more than mine ....

                Coupes are less than 100lbs lighter than sedans, wagons 2-300lbs heavier than sedans, generally speaking. This is according to a big ford encyclopedia I have. It has stats for every year.

                        The gvw is the weight of the vehicle plus its max load it is rated for, I believe.

                        So say if a car is 4000lbs and it can carry 1000lbs the gvw would be 5000lbs.

                        Correct me if im wrong.
