However, I am the type that will know if the car is working harder because of extra weight. To me, extra weight = car works harder, strain on the car, bad gas mileage, extra wear on tires.
No offense, but if bad gas mileage and extra tire wear are things that you are trying to avoid, then perhaps you are in the wrong car? I work the Z pretty hard on a daily basis. Much more so than just loading it up with an extra person. The extra weight and concerns you have aren't even on my radar. To each his own
