Are you sure it says 601 lbs???

Wow why even put it there..

Look on your door tag . Does it list a payload capacity?

Regardless go get the truck weighed at a cat scale. Post the individual axle ratings you get at the scale. Then post the axle weights on the door tag.

Also post the tire max psi rating and load capacity at that pressure..

From that we can guide you to what you can haul... ,,,,,,
