    I have a 2008 double cab tundra grade tundra. The yellow sticker with the load and cargo capacity states 1,395 pounds.

    Then I have this sticker that states my cargo capacity has been reduced by 380 pounds. Do any of you know what would have been added to get the load reduced by 380 pounds? It has a spray in bed liner but nothing else that I can think of to reduce it.

    The reason I ask is because with this reduction it gives me 1,015 pounds. I wanted to get a trailer but I've been reading a lot on this site and I really don't think I can get the size of trailer I wanted without going to a bigger truck.

    Options reduce the weight:

    Sunroof, step bars, trim packages all add weight.

    Most likely a sticker from the bed liner place. I have a similar one they added to the door jam, not sure of the weight they listed off the top of my head.

    That's the thing there are no step bars, sun roof, rear sliding window or anything like that. It is a base model truck that's why I can't figure out why the number is so high.
