The tool asks for weight but you didn't know yours? I got my car weighed at a metal recycler right across the street. They weighed the front and rear axles separately. FWIW
weight 1985lb
front axle 840lb
42% front 58% rear
w/ driver 2200lb

What I want next is a light-plane pitot tube. It can mount where the AM radio antenna was.
This is the tool: Aerodynamic & rolling resistance, power & MPG calculator - EcoModder.com
Trust, and using a general tool, are two very different things.

I don't know the exact weight. Dry is 3447, I put in 3800, I believe.
