Well, maybe it does. Maybe because it was truck. Maybe because it was not
USA spec. I have yet to see a gross combined weight rating on any Vanagon
I have worked on.

In fact I have not seen any weight compliance labels on the curb side.

I also could be wrong!

Dennis and it is Friday.

Hmm. I'm pretty sure my Tristar DOES have a GCWR label (on the passenger
side).

This includes documentation that you are within the weight ratings of the
vehicles, axles, and the gross combined weight ratings, (GCWR). If you
note the ratings on the Vanagon door jam, we do not have GCWR listed. Yep,
we can't tow anything. When towing, keep a copy of the owners manual with
the tow ratings handy in case you are asked.
