Anyone in Phoenix have set of scales. Always wondered what my car weighs. No hurry at all. Car is at my house at 67th and Jomax but will also be at the shop at 27th ave and Indian School at some point this summer. Thanks

Find someone who races circle track. They keep close eye on weights. We have a speed shop for the round racers, and they have scales here in town.

I will ask my buddy, he does the circle track stuff or did.  You need to convince the old man he needs a set for the shop though.

 
Call up the yards that sell rock and have a scale. Pioneer weighed mine for free, just had to drive over there. Told me on the phone that if the scale was empty to drive right on it. If I wanted a paper ticket then it would be $10 otherwise it was free.

Would really like to weigh each corner.

 
Check with RV parks, as some have Smartweigh setup that does corner weights. The Escapees park at North Ranch in Congress has it.

 
Could you move around a bathroom scale with high enough capacity? Put the other 3 tires on pieces of wood so the buggy is sitting naturally. Quick search found a 500lb scale for 50 bucks. No clue what the different buggies weigh.  scale 

Or maybe a shipping scale would be better. 650lb scale

 Guessing my car weighs 2300 to 2400 pounds.. Each back corner will be heavier than 650.

 
I hope someone has the cool 4 scale setup you could borrow. 

Suppose you could put (2) of the cheaper 500lb scales next to each other with a piece of wood on top if curiosity gets the best of you. 

Ive always wanted to test my tongue weight on a front bedroom toyhauler. Fully loaded with water and only a dirt bike and quad in the back.
