Fatso

So, I read the happy little S2k Manual. I discovered that the weight capacity of the little boogger is 400 pounds. Ok, so I'm a fatso.......maybe 220 on a good day. All is cool with the Mrs aboard...........luckily she's a svelte hottie and we don't go over the limit.

However, I have fattie friends who also weigh in at 230+. Assuming I can stuff both of us fat slobs into Baby, I'm now worried that being over her max gross will do damage.

What do ya think? Thanks!

Easy Pablo. If Mother says Stewie's good for 400, you can rest assured 1) There's a gross safety-margin figured inta that, n' 2) That particular weight limit is referrin' to goin' out n' floggin' it.
There's 2 seats. Unless you're gonna Haystacks Calhoun it squared, I wouldn't worry aboudditt.
Be well.

Haystacks BLANK'in Calhoun?
I nearly swallowed my own tongue, and you guys crack me up.


On a less gross note,
Is that "Big Pussy" from the Sopranos, as Haystack's tag-team partner? I knew he was famous before he started in with them fancy actin' types.
OK, it's not really that less gross......
