However, while the Rivian R1T, Ford F-150 Lightning, GMC Hummer EV, and Tesla Cybertruck aim to be big sellers for the electric truck segment, Toyota has yet to release an EV truck. Lighting: fogs only mod, back up lights, amber interior accent lighting, amber 10" LED light bar in hood scoop, 33" LED bar behind the lower grill, amber lamin-x on fog lights, Tacomabeast headlights and matching tails.Toyota has long been a major force in the pickup truck segment, with the Tacoma midsize truck and Tundra full-size truck.

This is a big difference, and will dictate whether or not my truck is capable of taking the family camping in August with a 19' camper. However, if it is not, and I am supposed to further subtract 290 lbs due to perhaps weak springs that aren't up to the task of supporting the claimed weights in the brochure, then my real payload is 1070 - 290 = 780 lbs. If this 290 lb sticker is representative of options that have been added to my truck, then my real payload would be 1070 lbs. This is where my question comes in, and it is something that I have suggested in other threads. Perhaps this is due to options on the truck such as TRD package and tow package?Therefore, I need to subtract 4380 from the GVWR of 5450 to get my new payload of 1070 lbs. In other words, my truck weighs in at 180 lbs more than what's stated in the brochure (225 lbs when accounting for the child seat and tonneau cover). The only "extras" that were in / on my truck was a child's car seat (10 lbs) and a folding hard tonneau cover (35 lbs maybe).
TACOMA TRUCK FULL
With a full tank of gas, my truck weighed 4380 lbs.
It occurred to me that my curb weight may be slightly different, so I took it to a scale to see. I got to thinking, how is the payload calculated? It is the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (5450 lbs) minus the curb weight (4155 lbs as stated in the brochure). I have the infamous sticker that reads "Modifications to this vehicle have reduced the original load carrying capacity by 290 lbs." The key words here being "original load carrying capacity." According to the Tacoma brochure that I have, the payload for my truck is 1295 lbs, which would be the "original load carrying capacity." Subtract from this the 290 lb sticker, and my new payload is 1005 lbs, or so I thought. I don't mean to beat a dead horse here, but I recently discovered some information that may make or break my truck's ability to go camping later this summer.
