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.
08s and 08.5s are identical. But I'm not sure what all the fuss is all about here. The payload capacity for the LWB CC is 1582 LBS. You should have (or will soon) received a recall letter and a new weight sticker along with an explaination on how to adhere it and why.
