Congratulations, In the Canadian manual it rates the GVW on a 1 1/2 ton as 9500 to 11000 pounds depending on tire size.
GVW defined by the manual"Gross Vehicle Weight which includes chassis, body, cab, PAYLOAD, fuel, water, oil, and driver.
If you live in BC our insurance companys recognize GVW as total combined weight of vehicle and payload, Net wieght as actual vehicle weight.Just thought I would clear that up!
