Yeah. The categories seem to be:

  - Compact cars (rare) - <3K LBs
  - Sedans / cross-over SUVs (RAV4, Crosstrek) - 3-4K LBs
  - Small 3 row SUVs (Pilot) / real SUVs (Explorer / Jeep) - 4-5K LBs
  - Big SUVs (Expedition) / Trucks - 5K+ LBs

I didn’t realize that the RAV was so unsafely light. I thought it would be a more respectable 4500 lb at least.

> unsafely light

Can't tell if this is nerd ragebait or just a confused person

Obviously you have never driven in Florida. It’s downright scary to drive anything under 5000lb there. Biggest trucks and suvs everywhere it’s an arms race you can’t opt out unless you want some 80year old in a expedition max to take you out.
