How To Calculate Tare Weight

Tare is the difference between GVWR Gross Vehicle Weight Rating and GVW Gross Vehicle Weight. In other words what the door sticker says the truck can haul and the weight of the truck.

Go to your local salvage yard or land fill. They usually have a scale. They will let you run accross to see how much your truck really wieghs.

Run it over a set of truck scales and then you know.
