I used Joe's Van ('87 Westy) to haul our old stove to the metal recycler
yesterday.  The Bus weighed 4700 lbs on the drive-on Toledo scale with me,
my brother Chris ('87 Wolfsburg, '85 Westy) and the old stove.

It weighed 4520 without the stove.  Chris weighs 195, I weigh 184.

Amazing how that old stove fit right in the bus!
