why not just take to a scale? most quarries have them and probally won't charge you for it some times it is a few bucks.

Most moving companies also have scales. Look in the phone book for "public scales" and find one near you. It will cost a few bucks, but you'll know exactly how much it weighs.

I doubt it'd weight that much. The sticker on the door says the Gross vehicle weight; not actual car weight. My vert was 3900lbs with two people, full tank, auto, and no weight savings done.

I am going to guess that your car weighs 3320.
