For those obsessed with shedding weight from car....
Whats your % of body fat? I see some people going to crazy extremes to drop a pound from the car's weight, isnt it easier to just diet then to gut your car?

Easier yes. Harder to maintain yes. Requires more work yes.
But I do agree ezpecially when the part is like a 2 pound savings

Depends on your size and weight. If I lost much more weight I'd prolly die.

You could donate a Kidney and Lung to shed a pound or 2... Of course if you drive a slush box you could give up one leg...

For me to lose 19 pounds I would have to join a gym and pay $30 monthly and it would take about 6 months to possibly reach that goal, then I would have to go back to the gym to maintain my weight loss...ugh. I'd rather just replace my battery with one of this mini batteries and drop the 19lbs in one quick purchase.
I'll rather keep eating my Five Guys burgers, just nooooo fries.  I usually eat pretty healthy but once in a while I gotta pig out on some junk food. As for a gym, I just can't do it. It goes against everything I believe in. I have two mountain bikes and a lake right by my home with several single track trails which makes more sense to me than running in place on a treadmill. Gyms are good for people but I just can't enjoy going to them. http://ft86speedfactory.com/ft-86-sp...y-kit-594.html |

I've got to cut milkshakes, cokes, and smoothie king and drink mostly water and I'll lose quite a bit of weight on my tires.
