Payload Capacity, G1 vs G2
Have you ever looked at YOUR trucks actual payload? Most of us know, although some may not that you can find it on the drivers side when the door is opened. I'm really interested to know what the real numbers will be for the G2. The curb weight between top and bottom trim levels (according to Honda), shouldn't vary by more than a couple hundred pounds. The variance from the top stated number of 1584lbs shouldn't be that much different, regardless of model.
I was at the Denver car show a couple months ago looking at the domestic and foreign truck offerings. I had my eye on the G2, but they had the secret service, and multiple snipers in the building to make sure you didn't cross the yellow line.
Bottom line is that I checked the payload of the top o the line Ram 1500 with all da bells and whistles, and the ACTUAL payload was 986lbs! My VW GTI can carry 1036 pounds in comparison. Point being that if there are four big guys in the Ram (a 60k truck by the way), that my mountain bike would exceed the manufacturers stated load capacity.
Ask any domestic truck owner what his payload capacity is, and 9 times out of 10 he/she won't have a clue.
I love showing this to heavily lifted, balls hanging from the tow hitch ******* truck owners that piss on the "Odyssey" based RL.
