No, it's got to be a misprint like the rest. The 6.7 is sitting on top of the front axle and always gets the 5600# rating.

That 5200 fawr is reassuring to me in a way. It is so clearly wrong that there's no way for it to be intentional. I can deal with bad stickers much easier than a decision to put axles out below previously published specs.

Wow, way overboard on the gumball metaphor.
Yup. No matter how hard you chew it's difficult to swallow.

Lightbulb I may be the tip of the corrected sticker sword...

Well, it will be interesting to see what "Sticker" I end up with. My truck was

-built and had an ETA of 9/12

-then changed to return to factory; ETA=TBD

-Now ready for shipping- ETA Still =TBD.

There is probably a good chance mine got a sticker correction (I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope...). Crossing fingers, toes, legs and eyes....

When it comes in, I'll know and all of you will too!

Any one else thru the cycle of:
Built > ETA > Return to Factory > Ready to ship > ?

Interesting albeit upside down. Doesn't address GAWR but does push 5th tow rating to 21.5k...

I think I may pay a small army of teenagers to replace stickers in the staging lot if I was running the show. Just sayin.

When you have the 20" option, the spare is always still an 18". Been that way since 20's were an option...

18" wheels it is. I don't want to give up a few hundred pounds of capacity. Plus, 18" tires are usually less expensive.
