Take it to a truck stop scale if you can for a true weight. Not sure about 4400lbs though, it does not seem right.

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating is the cars weight, + a full passenger compartment (estimated at 180lb per seatbelt), and a max cargo load.

So is 4230 correct.. yes! When taken in context.

(you car should be around 3150ish, give or take, based on mods/options)
