(1) Load rating represents maximum allowable weight of people, cargo and body equipment and is reduced by optional equipment weight.
(2) OPT/ARC Weight is the maximum allowable weight for regular production options (OPT) and aftermarket equipment (Accessory Reserve
Capacity) for completed pickup truck models with standard equipment and the powertrain combination indicated.
(3) Gross Axle Weight Rating is determined by the rated capacity of the minimum component of the axle system (axle, computer-selected springs,
wheels, tires) of a specific vehicle. Front and rear GAWRs will, in all cases, sum to a number equal to or greater than the GVWR for the particular
vehicle. Maximum loaded vehicle (including passengers, equipment and payload) cannot exceed the GVW rating or GAWR (front or rear).
NOTE: Refer to page 75 for Standard Powertrain/Chassis Equipment Specifications.
NOTE: The standard front spring/GAWR on Pickup models is computer-selected based on the total front weight of options ordered. Front spring/
GAWR upgrades range from 4000 lbs. to 6000 lbs. (4x4). Certain option packages include the following front spring/GAWR upgrades:
Heavy Service Front Suspension Package — Front springs/GAWR will be selected 1 upgrade higher than standard computer selection;
Camper Package — Front springs/GAWR will be selected 2 upgrades higher than standard computer selection on 4x4 models and 1
upgrade higher than standard computer selection on 4x4 models; Snowplow Package — Front springs/GAWR is assigned or specifically
selected as shown in the chart above. Front spring/GAWR upgrade is not included if the maximum front spring has been computer-selected
as a consequence of options ordered.
