Um no. Don't get caught up on the 50/50 weight thing. This is a perfect example of how I described BMW owners to be uptight and obsessive compulsive in another thread. The volume and weight of gas is constantly changing (along with other fluids like washer fluid), the placement of junk you are schlepping around in the trunk, glovebox, and passenger compartment is another weight variable, so is the weight of the driver and number of other passengers along with their placement.

If you were to add 1 passenger in the car, would you insist that they sit in the rear right seat for better weight distribution?...that would make an indelible impression on a date. Somebody else around here was all bent out of shape over the weight of the sunroof. We're not running a Grand Prix here folks, this is a passenger car. What really needs to lighten up is our collective uptightness.
