The "lugnut rule" is the first time I have ever heard of this but in thinking it is pretty much spot on.
The heavier the vehicle, the more lugnuts. An 18 wheeler has lots of lugnuts.
So 18 wheeler versus Honda Civic....
As for 4600 pounds? I think you might have opposed the numbers there. The H2 is about 6400+ lbs curb weight. Maybe you are thinking of the H3?? I think they are around 4600 lbs.

jsbihn,
yes, I may have accidentally reversed the numbers. It should be 6400 lbs. Even more reason to not take these vehicles beyond what they were designed for.
Nice to see we have similar backgrounds.
