The 3425lb weight was with the jack, tools, mats, etc. in my car but with a 1/2 tank of gas.

The lowest weight I've recorded at the scale at my local dump has been 3560lbs (1/2 tank, no spare, tools, but with mats) and when I subtract my 170lbs, it puts me right at 3,390lbs with a 4EAT. This is my racing weight typically when I go autoxing or to the dragstrip.
