need to lose some weight.

DickH · July 2nd, 2008, 02:32 AM

Will be having some fun this week, need to drop as much weight as possible. What is everything I can remove (not permanently) to save on weight. Spare, jack, trash, back seats... what else can be taken out without any problems? How much weight can actually be dropped doing this? Would I actually notice it?

I know Bwal usually takes out the hookers and the dead guy in the trunk (both are interrelated somehow btw), and that shaves off about 700lbs (he likes his hookers meaty). Lol

Umm, I guess you could take out the passenger seat, but I'm sure that would be alot of hassle. Also, do it on a near empty gas tank. If you have any speakers (like subs), take those out.

On the part about noticing it, hell if I know. It might make a difference between a 12 and a 11.99 though. Cuz of course saying you run a high eleven is better than sayin a low twelve, am I right?

I swear my drink just went up my nose. I was thinking the exact same thing. Oh, dieting is supposed to help from what I hear.
