Operating your vehicle with a light load means: • The total weight of occupants in your vehicle is less than the total seating capacity number your vehicle was designed to carry multiplied by 150 lbs (68 kg). The total seating capacity number is on the Tire and Loading Information label. • No more than 200 lbs (91 kg) of cargo, which must be secured in the cargo area. • No trailer is attached to your vehicle. • You have not added any additional equipment to your vehicle, like a truck cap or tool box. An example of the Improved Ride label is shown here. This label is attached to the lower section of the driver's door edge, for 2500 Series vehicles only. The vehicle load capacity and the rear axle load capacity are reduced when the tire pressure is lowered to the amount recommended for improved ride. Before operating your vehicle with passengers or cargo greater than a light-load, you must inflate the rear tires to the recommended cold tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information Label.
