Won't find the GCWR on the door frame. It will only have the axle and vehicle ratings.
Following the manuals GCWR will preserve your warrantee, let you meet acceleration targets, let you climb steep grades without concern for overheating, start on steep grades from dead stop, apply the parking brake on a steep grade and leave the vehicle, all kinds of things that are great but aren't applicable for everyone. Legally not enforceable in many jurisdictions.
My F350 super duty is rated to tow 5000 lbs max in the manual. What is needed to obtain the 16,000 lb or whatever tow rating of the 6.8L V10 model? Just the engine.
