Post your door sticker for your TC hauler ... and weight
Post a pic for your door sticker for your TC hauler with a weigh ticket. Feel free to cut out your VIN if needed. :) Probably the heaviest I've been on a trip.

"The only way to boost the payload rating is to take weight off the truck: removing the rear seat or bumper, using lighter wheels and/or tires that meet gross axle weight rating requirements, and so on."
"Although payload determination may vary by manufacturer, the GVWR and GAWR (gross axle weight rating) on the certification label are standardized and absolute. Only the manufacturer — or an upfitter that started with an incomplete vehicle — can set the GVWR. There’s no wiggle room or fudge factor here; the rating exists because above it, things can and will break. And if you overload the vehicle, a break may also break your wallet because the warranty won’t cover it."
"Be Aware As a result, you can’t increase your payload, but you can do things to make your truck more comfortable operating at or very near GVWR."
