Here is something i found for you:
/ e8 B* l4 G5 P
9 s; C- T4 A8 y3 v, `"A gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) is the maximum allowable total weight of a road vehicle or trailer when loaded - i.e including the weight of the vehicle itself plus fuel, passengers, cargo, and trailer tongue weight."
; w$ ]6 ^2 w0 u; R
# n9 O  v! M/ m# d+ g, r& |"The difference between gross weight and curb weight is the total passenger and cargo weight capacity of the vehicle. For example, a pickup truck with a curb weight of 4500 pounds might have a cargo capacity of 2000 pounds, meaning it can have a gross weight of 6500 pounds when fully loaded."
