Jim was in trouble.
He forgot his wedding Anniversary.
His wife was really angry.

She told him, "Tomorrow Morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in under 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE!"

The next morning Jim got up early and left for work.

When his wife woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough there
was a box gift- wrapped in the middle of the driveway.

Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought
the box back in the house. She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.

I think this is supposed to be told in metric. No car, as far as I know, can go 0 to 200 in 6 seconds, but if it was 0 to 60 (or 70 or 80) the weight wouldn't be high enough. It should probably be 0 to 100, and kilometers per hour and kilograms. 200 mph and pounds doesn't make sense.

Kilograms are a measure of mass, not weight. :p

but a scale can still display in Kg.
