At the risk of further mod scrutiny...
You're going on a trip. The car can only carry 400 lbs. You know how much you weigh. You know the weight of all your stuff.
Now, how you gonna make sure you're not over limit unless you ask your passenger how much they weigh? Yeah.
What happens when they answer, and you start jettisoning stuff from the trunk?
Don't actually answer that, not here. Just, think about how you could handle that situation with sensitivity for others feelings. Again, don't reply here.

Easy peasey. The S will easily handle 600 lbs. (no matter what it is "designed" for. You will, however, feel it on say, the Dragon on your way up to the hotel or on your way out. You drive accordingly. Now, if you are seriously lowered with fat ass tires -- well that was your poor choice.
