The first number anyone should look at is your trucks payload. Weigh it loaded with everything you'll take in your truck. Subtract that number from your trucks GVWR and go from there. Some trucks will be out of payload capacity before you hit any of those other numbers. If you're exceeding your payload let me know so I can stay away from you on the road!
I didn't realize that being 200lbs over my GVWR was putting me at risk for something. Tell me what's going to happen and I'll be on the lookout for it.
Oh by the way I'm in Oregon most of the time. I'll let you know If I venture down your way.
Only, 200# over, he would likely run as fast as he could if he knew how far over GVWR I am, but then again well under axle ratings, and no suspension EXTRAS, just the stock Camper package.
