I had to take my truck in for a smog check for the first time today. New rules finally got around to my truck. Challenging part is that my truck was sold as a commercial cab and chassis unit. There is no GM decal inside the driver's door. In its place is a decal from Royal, the truck body outfitter who first took delivery of the cab and chassis, but nothing is filled in on the decal. The smog tech needed a GVWR number. He finally just added 2,000 lbs to the curb weight off the registration, but I have no idea how accurate that may be. I do not know if it will matter or not, but I would like to have a relatively honest answer for the next time this issue comes up.

If someone could take a look at what it says on their door I would be most appreciative.

Thanks in advance.

My 2006 (in sig) is 9200lb gvwr. I can't remember the axle weights off hand, I believe all of the older (01-10) 2500HD's are the same gvwr, not sure on the 2011+ trucks though.
