- ecoDiesel 3.0L V6
So, I took my new 2018 Laramie ecoDiesel to the local CAT scale. I weighed it, my eyes watered and I found out I'm going to be towing RIGHT at my GVWR. But I figure that as long as I don't go past GVWR, I'm fine.
Now, what was interesting was the truck weighed 50lbs more than the curb weight as calculated as GVWR - sticker payload. What's even scarier is the tank was only 66-75% full.
I have pretty much nothing in the truck apart from some used Tim Horton's coffee cups.
I thought curb weight was supposed to include all fluids including a fuel tank of gas (or diesel in my case)?
Which sticker applies here? The payload sticker or the GVWR sticker given they conflict by 50lbs+?
