Hi,

I agree Jake, but without crew and cargo your van  is a 51/49 split.

The point was that the vanagon "empty",  is close to 50/50.

Now that all changes when <insert fellow listmember's name here>
hauls his creaking frame up into the driver's seat.

Hi Al.

Just put Dixie over the scale on the way back from seeing Bard on the
Beach's fantastic version of "Taming of the Shrew" for the second
time. Its set as a spaghetti western but with Shakespeare's script
intact..... Its great. :)

Anyway, Dixie with two 10 lb propane canisters in the luggage rack
and the tools that she carries, plus Jake (190) and Maiken (135) look
like this:

Front: 2376 lbs
Rear:  1936 lbs
Total: 4312 lbs
