So the bottom line is the guide is full of cars that miss a class by 5 pounds.
I was not trying to be a jack azz I just wanted to know if I was looking at things the right way.
I see the shipping weight diffidence now, as I was unaware of this fact.
It is interesting.
Thank you for your clear guidance on this topic.
