What is the weight of a truck on a title certificate?
For a truck, including a pick-up truck, the weight on your title certificate is the UNLADEN (unloaded) weight of the vehicle alone. The weight on the registration is the MAXIMUM GROSS WEIGHT (MGW), which is the combined weight of the vehicle PLUS the maximum load it is allowed to carry during the registration period.

There is no fee if you are amending only the unladen weight listed on your title. You may also amend the MGW on your registration on the MV-82 when you apply to amend the unladen weight on the title (see information above).
Why is the weight on the registration higher than the title?
The weight on the registration is the MAXIMUM GROSS WEIGHT (MGW), which is the combined weight of the vehicle PLUS the maximum load it is allowed to carry during the registration period. Therefore, the weight on the registration is higher than the weight on the title.
How does gross vehicle weight rating ( GVWR ) work?
You can think of the GVWR as a weight limit for your specific vehicle — a weight limit set by the automaker. Gross vehicle weight ratings take into account the base curb weight of the vehicle plus the weight of any optional accessories, cargo and passengers. A vehicle should never be loaded beyond the manufacturer’s listed GVWR.
