the base curb weight.

passengers, cargo and all equipment.

[GF15900(ALL)01/96]
It is important to remember that GVW is not a limit or a
specification, but actual weight. If an owner loads up the vehicle
and weighs it, that’s the GVW at that moment. If the owner
adds on more of a load and weighs it again, that becomes the
GVW.
