Thanks,

Your axle ratings, tire size and GVWR are listed on the VIN sticker on the drivers door pillar!

This may be a stupid follow-up question but, does that mean that even though the posted GVWR is 10,000# is the "real" GVWR 12,200# based on these numbers?
Thanks again.

Thanks Rhagfo. I had to look again for the sticker you referred to and I found it this time. It is not in the same place and is much less conspicuous than the sticker with the payload and tire information.
