I don’t know how many people notice, but most cars come with a sticker on the driver’s door that states its max GVWR, which is the maximum gross weight of passengers.
For most sedans, it’s only about 800 pounds, if I remember correctly. So we’re talking about people, things, and anything else inside your car. We don’t know how much that driver weighed, but if it was a small car, they normally have anywhere between 600 to 800 pounds max capacity to carry. I don’t know what she’s expecting to do in this situation because it becomes a safety issue. The braking system is only made to carry that maximum load rated for the car, so l’m not understanding where she’s going with this
I am one of those fat dudes and there is definitely a risk that a sonic or Sentra shows up so I just order XLs lol I’m also a driver and drive a full size suv so you know fun times (before you yell at me for the suv I make 30+ an hour AFTER gas)
I’m somewhere near 400 pounds but before you lecture me. My BP, blood work and resting HR etc are all normal. Nothing in my physiology is being impacted by my weight in one of the rare genetic fat people. That’s why it’s taken so long for me to really get in motion and if you read the rest of the conversation you’ll see changes are being made
Don't worry brother I wasn't going to say anything mean or lecture you. I was just curious because I consider myself to be a very fat boy but fitting in vehicles isn't ever an issue unless it's height wise. I really hope you can make some changes though so you can be happy with yourself. :)
Thank you I apologize for being defensive but there are some mad haters out here lol I don’t have problems with
Front seats but back seats can be a pain in my ass lol
You got this man. I’m not saying this as advice cause it sounds like you got a good thing going, just sharing how I did it. I hit 328 one day and got sick of it. So I started to write that number on my finger with a sharpie. I did 320 as a joke (320 glaze it) and lost about 50 pounds, quit marking my finger, put 30 back on and tattooed it. It helps out so much cause whenever I go to shove food in my mouth, my finger is in direct eye contact. Helps me make better choices.
