5800 lb RGAWR would be worthy of ALOT of praise! :B
But, they're calling it a 3500 model, in which case,
5800 is just below the expected norm (6000+) for a 1-ton.
Nissan is just barely squeaking into the 1-ton category here....
True I guess that's is squeaking ... my 3/4 ton rear GAWR is about 6000. Still I was somewhat surprised that it was so "high" compared to their Titan.
IIRC the NV 3500 rear axle is tire limited, I looked up the load ratings for the LT245/75R17 and they seem to align with the NV axle rating.
