So I will give you the reason first, my Home Owners Association limits us to 10K gross weight vehicles outside of the garage. No rules on what is in the bed. Now for the question, if all the trucks...

GVWR isn't "gross weight." If their restrictions are based on "gross weight," an F-350 isn't going to weigh over 10,000 pounds empty even if it does have a GVWR higher than that.
GVWR is the maximum weight the vehicle can be if loaded to the max. For a SRW the two rear tires are going to be a significant restriction because trucks carry weight primarily on their rear axles, but GVWR is lower than the combination of the axle weight ratings so it is more complicated than that and takes the entire vehicle design into account.
Your explanation makes no sense. First paragraph uses gross incorrectly. Im thinking you mean "tare" or empty wieght.
