CW,
Based on your response, it's very clear to me that all those "alphabet soup agencies" and their "can't pronounce the name" regulations have consumed common sense and personal responsibility. Apparenlty, some "wet behind the ear kid" with a degree in "rubber management" can solve the transportation department problems and as long as it's on a sticker, all is golden.
Gone are the days of airing truck tires to accommodate an empty bed, changing the pressure if you have a 1000 pound load or increasing the load to maximum if you're carrying a large cab-over camper. The "soup brand" regulations just say, "increase the PSI to 80 rear and 65 front" regardless of whether there's a 1000 pound payload or a 5500 pound payload.
As I said, the "gubmint done dummied us down so far we can't think for ourselves".... Now, it's check the sticker, add air and check the TPMS, if the bell sounds and the light goes off, salivate and they'll give you a treat. Pavlov would be proud.....
