Nissan Website Lies

I recent got an updated "Tires and Loading" sticker for my 08 SE CC 4x4 LWB. On it, it lists the maximum payload to be about 1380 lbs. The original sticker listed it at about 100 lbs more. Anyway, I din't remember the payload being that low. So, I looked at the Nissan website and for my model it lists the cargo capacity at about 1580 lbs. I know that the website isn't necessarily "official", but I'm a bit perturbed that they would have such a blatant error. One of my requirements for a new truck was a minimum payload of 1500 lbs. Had I known the payload was only 1380, I might have opted for a short bed instead. I know an extra 100 lbs or so won't cause the wheels to fall off. The only way I'll know what the true payload capacity is is to go weigh it and subtract that from the GVWR.
