Here is something i found for you:
5 q( Y( P( r# [. y3 ?
; {3 |$ f) z1 J3 G& t7 l"A gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) is the maximum allowable total weight of a road vehicle or trailer when loaded - i.e including the weight of the vehicle itself plus fuel, passengers, cargo, and trailer tongue weight."
; y, P/ T2 [2 }: e) N
"The difference between gross weight and curb weight is the total passenger and cargo weight capacity of the vehicle. For example, a pickup truck with a curb weight of 4500 pounds might have a cargo capacity of 2000 pounds, meaning it can have a gross weight of 6500 pounds when fully loaded."

I hope that would help with your question.
