What’s the Difference Between Curb Weight and GVWR?

Think of GVWR as the maximum amount of weight you’ll want your vehicle and its contents to weigh when put together. Here’s a handy outline of the difference between the Ram 1500 curb weight and GVWR:

• The Ram 1500 curb weight doesn’t include passengers, additional equipment, or towing weight.
• Gross vehicle weight rating is the maximum weight that can be safely stowed in the vehicle, including the vehicle weight, passengers, cargo, and tongue weight if you’re towing.

Note: Tongue weight is not the same as towing capacity. It’s simply the amount of weight the trailer places on the hitch itself.
