Well I didnt know where to put this so if its the wrong spot please move it for me I just wanted to know what the maximum payload for a base vibe is. I am moving from Virginia to Ohio, and the more stuff I can take with me the more the military pays me for my move. I was thinking it should be able to handle about 500lbs. What do you guys think?

V, I just moved from SW Georgia to Coastal North Carolina. I went ahead of my wife and lived in a small apt. for a few months until we found a new house. I packed my base V. from front to back and up to the ceiling with everything you need to set up an apt. pots, pans, clothes, books .... it rode great and averaged about 30mph on a 8 hour run. Hope that helps, Jim
