GVWR itself IS NOT open to interpretation. As I said and referenced in a previous post, GVWR and it's descriptive wording is finite, in that it's what the
vehicle manufacturer says it is.
The vehicle manufacturer has exclusive authority (FMVSS) to set GVWR. Vehicle certification (CFR 49 part 567) actually orders all vehicles to display vehicle certified GVWR. Once the vehicle has passed over to a consumer the only way the information on the certification label can be changed is by vehicle placard recall action or modifications. Only the vehicle manufacturer or a certified modifier have the authority to change the information on the certification label.
Quit shooting from the hip and please provide some references for your "off the wall" information.
