Aren't we saying the same thing? Payload, GVWR, whatever the rating, if you are over it, there are legal ramifications.
No, because the GVWR you are talking about is the GVWR that the manufacturer gives the truck. This has no legal bearing whatsoever outside of warranty.
The registered GVWR I am talking about is the amount of GVWR you pay for to the state. These two can be totally different numbers. Some states like mine will allow you to pay for a higher GVWR than what is on your door and you are 100% legal.
