And let's suppose it was a typo, how successful would one be in getting it corrected...not that it would really matter if one knew it was a typo, and knew what the real number is, but I am thinking just for the sake of accuracy and resale, one would want to have the correct numbers. Not to mention if it is a typo...then how can we trust any of the stickers that are out there?

For a RAM you can look up the specs by using the VIN.
Does GM offer that feature?Jay Leonard

There was a typo on payload just recently. Believe it was the Ford Super Duty 350 SRW showing payload of DRW, IIRC.
Remember GM vehicles are a little wonky when it comes to the way they do they GVWR (which affects paper payload numbers). Ford and Ram pretty much stick to the 10k for 3/4 ton, 12k for 1 ton SRW, and 14k 1 ton DRW for GVWRs, regardless of trim and engine packages. Where as GM plays with the numbers a bit. A 2500 from GM can have anywhere from a 10K GVWR to a little over 11k GVWR depending on long bed, engine, differential, and trim package.

There is a similar tool for Ford trucks. It gives you all the numbers (including curb weights) from which to calculate payload:

They're all somewhat similar in having numbers all over the place, especially on 1 ton SWR's
GM is the farthest along on the 2500's. Ford has also started offering 250's up to 10,800. Ram I think, is still limiting to 10k but they also have completely different suspension system from the 2500 to 3500
On 1 ton SWR Ford runs from 10,100 to 12,400, with most powerstrokes in the mid 11's and 7.3's +/- 11k. https://www.ford.com/cmslibs/content...ty_PU_Dec3.pdf
I think GM tops out at 12,250 and Ram at 12,300 with a similar spread
All current DWR's are 14K. The F450 is significantly de-rated. Equivalent 350's will have 4-600lbs more payload than a 450. That's the craziest of all, a much more capable truck but with lower specs. The Gov. needs to update the truck classes to better reflect today's trucks.2021 Solitude 375 RES-R
