The window sticker says 7200# gvwr package but the sticker in the door says 3750# front gawr and 4050# rear gawr. That equals 7800? Regardless, the yellow sticker says 1127 payload capacity.

I might get flamed for saying this but in this case I wouldn't worry too much about being few 100lbs above payload if it wouldn't be illegal. In Canada, for non commercial vehicles, load ratings don't mean much for the laws. In fact they don't mean anything since I could be carrying 3000lbs in my bed with a 12000lbs trailer and it would be legal...
I like you man, but the flaming will start right.....about.......now

His is a platinum, which has many more features and they all weight more. Whats your trim level? XL's have a higher payload, but as you go on up the line adding more features at every trim level they payload goes down because every little electrical module and everything else they bolt on weights more.
Edit: missed yours above the avatar, That is a big difference from a lariat to a platinum considering platnums dont have many more features than my fully loaded lariat. Is yours got all the goodies? nav and moon roof? that subtracts a good bit.

Sadly if legality is important to you you'll have to be at or under 7200 while being well balanced enough to ensure neither axle is overloaded. That actually shouldn't be difficult with a 600lb "buffer".

I'm pretty sure next time he'll do his homework before buying... not after
