I interpret it as the truck being able to carry a certain amount of weight, AND tow a certain weight. As a radical example, if I dropped a 3000 pound weight in the bed of my truck, I could drive around all day with that weight and still have the capability of towing/hauling 15700 pounds. And you are correct on the gcwr. I'm not sure what my status will be until I get the trailer and get it weighed.
