My truck lost 10 lbs -- of carrying capacity

Makes me want to peek at mine. Looks like I may have to loose a few lbs to compensate

 

Gulf States Toyota? But some of the Postings with stickers list California and Arizona as home locations, is it a nationwide thing?

 

Mine has no numbers on it. Better sign up for Jenny Craig truck diet program

 

Who weighs what they load into your truck? Unless your trying to get an entire patio of paver stones home in one trip most of us just load her up and go.

 

When they start adding accessories they deduct.

 

What's next, driver weigh in every service? If we gain weight they reduce carrying load by that much?

 

Well this will be interesting, my truck is a pig with all steel sliders and skids, even on the tank and differential, a platform in back, heavy cap and second battery. Not as much as those with plate bumpers, so maybe just 5 lbs over instead of 7lbs.

 

Have one on mine too...Colorado. Damn tonneau. I would ASSume it's a nationwide plot.

 

Gas is about 6lbs/gal. There’s your method to keep it in check

 

I got the same thing on my 2010 Prerunner. Said that the TRD wheels on mine weighed more that the stock wheels.

 

They have had that sticker for over a decade, my 08,11,15,16,17 and 19 all had it. Its okay OP, breathe.

 

What sticker???....

 

I got the sticker too, but it says i lost 0 lbs.

 

What you people don't seem to understand is that these stickers are. They are known in some places as "CYA stickers" (cover your ass) . These are for one reason, to protect Toyota from over-zealous lawyers. Lets say you have a accident carrying a big load and somebody tries to pin the reason on your load's weight. Toyota can say they warned you about the load capacity therefore getting them (manufacturer) out of the "blame-game" lawyers want to play these days. Of course no one wants to take responsibility for THEIR OWN actions, they want to find someone else at fault for their own stupidity.

 

Mine says less 11lbs. but I imagine that has to do with the original aftermarket wheels and tires the dealer/factory put on with the 3n1 spacer/block lift.

Went with SCS 17s with 285/70 and saved over 54lbs...do I get them to recheck it (I am being sarcastic!) so it shows "extra weight capacity"

 

The only reason I can't breathe is from laughing too much when I saw it. 10 lbs? What a joke!

 

Ya my first 2nd gen I saw it a month or so in and was like WTF? Lol.

 

Oh, it's the lawyers. No doubt.

 

I found that with a google search, my Taco from Oregon has it so I assume it’s a federal thing.

 

WTF!? Seriously? I just took mine in for its first service and I didn’t see one. I’ll have to go and look harder now to make sure...
