Just curious mostly.
Did you weigh your truck empty and verify the payload sticker was accurate?
Thanks!

Doesn't the payload sticker just state the allowable load that can be added to curb weight of the truck? Seems to me the only way one could "verify its accuracy" would be to add an exactly known weight to the truck, then compare total weight with whatever the GVWR is on the sticker. Is that what you mean?
No, what I mean is fill your empty truck up with a full tank of gas and then weigh your truck... Subtract this number from the GVWR. Does that number match the payload sticker. :)
Thanks!
