[AT] What does a Cub weigh?

[Mike Sloane]

There are several numbers floating around, but I always used 1700, with 
ag type tires, without wheel weights or liquid in the tires, with a full 
tank of gas, and all fluids. I have a feeling that the ramps in Northern 
would not be sufficient without supporting them in the middle with some 
kind of strut. I have used cheap auto ramps in the middle of oak planks 
for extra support. It is not an elegant solution, but it works in a 
pinch, especially for a Cub.

Nothing so completely baffles one who is full of trick and duplicity
himself, than straightforward and simple integrity in another. -Charles
