Load limit
 

How much can I put in cargo area? I'm buying hardwood and total weight will be about 3000 pounds. I can fit it in 2 trips, but wonder if that is too much weight?

Manual mentions something like 450kg

450 x 2.2 = ~1000lbs so that would be three trips by the book. If it's a long distance, just rent a Uhaul?

Yes if you have a hitch rent a trailer.
