How much do you weigh? I'd like to know how much the car itself weighs since we have the same car.

Any good Falcon driver knows that it's not what you weigh,... but how much thrust you generate that gets you to the ceiling. Give GE a call and see if they can come up with something with an afterburner to help us big cars out. I'm at 3,850 at the moment.
