My GVWR is 11,400.
My weight with the camper and family is around 13,000.
I don't know how to post pictures.
As fate would have it, the truck burned down in a fire. Total loss. :(
I used the opportunity to upgrade to a MUCH heavier duty service truck. The new truck has 33,000 GVWR, 12,000 FGAWR, 21,000 RGAWR, 23,500 lb rear suspension, and loaded it weighs only 20,000 GVW. I'm MUCH happier now, being 13,000 lbs UNDERloaded! :B
