Bought JTRD in Louisville, KY. Travelled there because it had our desired options (Cold weather, audio, LED, towing). Went to transfer title & register in PA. KY title didn't list GVWR, only a KY state code for vehicle class. Tag agent sent me to inspection mechanic w/ form to specify unladen weight & GVWR. Door label specifies 6450# GVWR. Inspection mechanic wanted me to take vehicle through scales rather than rely on Jeep online specs. it weighed 6000#, w/ winch & OEM winch bumper, 1/2 tank fuel, an ARE CX cap, & less than 100# in bed, on 35's. That means I only have 450# payload remaining. WTH? That's two adults, or just myself on range day.
I realize the diesel's heavier, but it doesn't give me a very warm feeling about Jeep engineering.
