Payload discrepancies

What is the true payload of this truck?
Stated payload 3094#
Difference between curb weight and GVWR 2865#
Door placard max passengers and cargo. 2824#

All data is from the manufacturer's specifications and the vehicle tire placard.


Which of these numbers is the correct payload weight rating?

Thanks

    Thank you, Lantley. That is exactly the type of explanation I was seeing.

    The 2824 is specific to that exact vin # and is the most accurate. It includes options and features that reduce the payload. The other numbers are model specific and apply to all generic builds of that truck

    IMO If you are worried about 270#, which is 10 percent then you don't have enough truck!
