[Tex/LaTex] Fit table a bit outside of text margins

marginstables

Following my post here, how could I use the command:

\resizebox{\linewidth}{!}{...}

to place a table a bit outside of the text margins?

EDIT:

At the moment this works fine for me. My only problem is that the height changes correspondingly which is something that I do not want.

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{setspace}
\spacing{1.5}
% \raggedright

\usepackage[margin=1.3in]{geometry}

\usepackage[polutonikogreek,english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{textalpha}

\usepackage{amsmath}

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{float}

\usepackage{color}
\usepackage{soul}

\usepackage{adjustbox}

\newcommand{\head}[1]{\textnormal{\textbf{#1}}}
\newcommand{\greek}[1]{{\selectlanguage{polutonikogreek}#1}}

\begin{document}

\section{Introduction}

\begin{table}[H]
    \begin{adjustbox}{width=1.3\textwidth,center}
        \begin{tabular}{ll}
            \hline
            \multicolumn{2}{c}{\head{Fuels}} \\
            \hline
            \multicolumn{1}{l}{\head{Name}} & \multicolumn{1}{l}{\head{Numbes}} \\
            \hline
            \ttfamily XXXXXXXXXX & \ttfamily XXX \\
            \ttfamily XXXXXXXXXX & \ttfamily XXX \\
            \hline
        \end{tabular}
    \end{adjustbox}
    \caption{Selected fuels}
    \label{tab:SelectedFuels}
\end{table}

\end{document}

Here are some possibilities.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[left=3in,right=3in,showframe]{geometry}
%\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{adjustbox}

\begin{document}
\noindent\resizebox{\linewidth}{!}{%
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
  \hline
   some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing \\
  \hline
\end{tabular}%
}%

\begin{adjustbox}{width=1.2\textwidth,center}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
  \hline
   some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing \\
  \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{adjustbox}

\begin{adjustbox}{max width=\textwidth,center}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
  \hline
   some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing \\
  \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{adjustbox}

\noindent\makebox[\textwidth]{%
\resizebox{1.2\linewidth}{!}{%
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
  \hline
   some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing & some thing \\
  \hline
\end{tabular}%
}%
}%

\end{document}
