Dually payload??
How do I figure a dually payload? I drove one and the sticker inside said the cargo rating is 2482#. Do you multiply x2 since it's a dually?

If you're looking at a 2001 - 2010 Chevy the GVWR should be 11,400. The truck empty probably weights about 7,500. This should leave you around 3,900 pounds of payload. Even subtracting for people should leave over 3,000 pounds for payload.

My own 2005 Chevy dually is rated for 11,400 but scales at about 13,200 with my family, 11' TC, and boat hitched up. I'm not over the ratings of my tires or axles. I've got many thousands of miles behind me with this set up.
