As it turns out, Toyota specifies that a Corolla can safely hold 850 pounds (that’s driver, passenger, cargo, ping-pong balls, whatever). We found this out the hard way: Sarah and I loaded half our earthly possessions into her car and were preparing to load my vehicle when I noticed that the undercarriage of her car (wheelbase, tireholder-thingy, whatever terminology you prefer) was nearly touching her back tires. We now have half the earthly possessions we had yesterday. Call a farmer.
