Door sticker says never exceed 1263 lbs of cargo/passengers.
What!? That can't be right. I've found many other sources on line that state the payload as 1889 lbs. What gives here? My truck is a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic.

Those are for brochure/website/advertising. The TREAD Act tire and loading sticker is still correct, as equipped each vehicle.
Yes, agreed.
Which is why people like the OP feel so cheated. Advertise ~1800#, but deliver ~1200#.
