Cab and chassis vehicles do not have this data on door panel or should I say my dodge ram 3500 in year model 2001 did not.
I think this was your Dodge.
My F350 was utility body, so was originally sold as cab and chassis and does have the sticker.
I just want to point (again) that GVWR is most of the time determinate by taxes and that is why when you add axle ratings, you will come much higher.
For example Ford makes chassis capable of 35,000 lb GVWR, but such vehicle would require CDL (unless registered as RV) so Ford derated the chassis to 26,000 lb with possible lighter tires.
That doesn't mean the chassis can't handle 35k
Typical sample - 1 ton pickups hauling goseneck with 5 cars on it.
