Just picked up  '21 2500HD AT4 6.6 Gas with AT4 premium plus. I was surprised payload was ~2600 pounds. I was expecting in the 3's. Any idea why? The truck has the camper/plow package with the heavier front axle...does that play into lower payload?

That doesn't make any sense to me in a gas engine truck. Every 2020+ 2500 gas I've seen has been 3k+ payload. Post your stickers?

My thoughts exactly. I thought it was a typo meaning 3600 lbs but both stickers show the 2600... Looks like the curb weight of the truck is high. I wonder if it's due to the camper package? What do others curb weight look like?

That sticker shows GVWR derated to 10000.  

This is it. Some option derated the gvwr. I want to say mine is 10650. I have a 2021 Silverado 2500HD High Country Gas CC SB.

Ah yes, I just "built" and AT4 and there are 3 options 10,000, 10,650 and 11,350. Obviously I have the 10k option.  Who would have thunk there is a GVWR option.... The other AT4 I was looking at had the 10,650 GVWR too bad... I think with that additional weight I would have had to register it as commercial vehicle.

Great info, thank you! I also read in a separate thread that the difference between the 10k and 10,650 was the sticker, that there are no mechanical differences etc. If that is true then my payload should be around unofficially 3347 lbs.

That is true.  The only physical difference is the sticker, the truck is the same.

I believe the 'no mechanical differences' is correct. 

For legal issues the sticker is still the limit. (which probably matters more for commercial uses than for recreational use)

 

It's an 'elective' limit that  has to do with licensing/insurance  in some areas - including annual inspection requirements.

I believe you're correct. Here in Massachusetts, I think anything over 10k requires a commercial plate even for individual use. Commercial plate requires annual renewal of the registration and it's more $$....

    • Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.    
    • not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...
    • First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.  
    • I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou
