Where are you looking up payload info? The information is consistent no matter what reputable website you look at.
What are the numbers on door jamb data sticker? I already answered that in another post.
GVWR of 7200# minus scale weight 5900# equals 1300# of capacity left. Yes - that's what I already said in my initial post.
5900# included your husband and EVERYTHING in vehicle. Yes again... that's what I already said in my initial post.
1300# minus your weight, minus anything you put in vehicle, minus any other passengers & their stuff........not much 'actual payload' capacity going to be left. It still leaves us with over 800 so I guess "not much actual payload" is extremely subjective.
That's the reality of real numbers vs mfg. published marketing numbers that have fine print/caveats such as:
**May vary depending on model, trim and/or powertrain. (We had looked it up based on exact model, trim, and powertrain)
**Weight of additional options, passengers, cargo and hitch must be deducted from this weight Yes I am quite aware and already mentioned that...
I've responded in red above. I'm not sure if you didn't read the majority of my post or any of the comments afterward but I think all you did was just give us a synopsis of what I already said.
No I wasn't giving you a synopsis.
I was asking some legitimate questions and providing some insight to mfg. published numbers.
Website numbers are generic. The data sticker on your vehicle is specific.
Just cause you don't like the numbers doesn't mean they are not true.
Sorry for your lack of payload but it is what it is.
