Man my truck is light. I scaled it with myself and full tank of gas. 4 door long bed 2WD 6.0/4L80E no options was just at 6000lbs. It is a 9200lbs gross weight truck.
That seems really heavy for gasser. Is it fully loaded?
I re-read your post...
I don't know about the Washington State Scales. I worked for a company were we filled liquid trucks on a scale that was calibrated monthly and we had to load the trucks light as the scales always weighed them more here on the I-5 Corridor in Wa.
I was based out of Puyallup and our trucks routinely went to Canada. It wasn't by much but some tankers we loaded 5000 to 7000 lbs less to be legal. We were 80,000 lbs rigs. I could be wrong but we saw it happen a bunch of times.
I see no issue going with what the payload says on your truck.
