Leave them at home!!!

Well, the chassis/tire combination for a STOCK Scion xB gives a maximum load capacity of 825 pounds...

That includes the weight of the fuel at roughly 8 pounds per gallon, any tools, maps, snacks, drinks, jackets, installed accessories, and, of course, the driver and passengers...

That's really not that much capacity, and just the fuel, driver, and one passenger like those shown, is getting close to limit...

Looks like you and one, maybe two, passengers. Sorry!

I apologize, but this is the funniest thread ive ever read.

LOL time for a spring upgrade

Damn, you guys are some heavyweights. I try and try and have never been over 135lbs.

I didn't know the xB can only carry so little weight though. It has room for so much!

Tamago

yes, definitely upgrade your friends..

I suspect the Japanese designers of the bB and xB designed for 'average' size occupants of 150 pounds (750) plus a small bit of kit, rather than the 'average' size Americans (170 pounds) or average size Samoans (???) or Sumos (!!!).

It's like those "One Size Fits All" things my wife used to complain about...

If you are out of the 'normal range' of sizes, things don't quite fit the same, whether it is pantyhose, airline seats, or cars. :D

Have them loose weight. I had to make my friend loose 50 pounds in 6 weeks cause he jacked up my body kit with weight. Like a protein shake or something.

I too have big mammal friends. Have you met my friend Big Don and his xB?



All you need are some bigger wheels to compensate the drop with your friends. My Boy Big Don has 20s to compensate for his fellas.

SkeeTownBox
