Does my yellow sticker seem accurate?

Dry specs in the manual are listed as;

Unloaded vehicle weight (lbs.) 3615
Hitch weight (lbs.) 440
Gross vehicle weight (lbs.) 4950
Cargo carrying capacity (lbs.) 1335

My understanding is those specs are listed without Propane or battery?

My yellow sticker states the unloaded weight at 3670# but with full propane and battery? That's only 55# over the dry weight, also does the hitch weight seem accurate or is that weight without propane and battery?

The manual weights are guesstimates based on the average weights of materials used in the design. Every unit is weighed when it comes off the line so that sticker will be accurate since they know the exact weight of propane, batteries, gas in the geny tank if so equipped.

if I,m not mistaken, the yellow sticker includes only propane, not the battery

Ya, no battery in yellow sticker as batteries are dealer added. They don't come with batteries from the factory. Anything else dealer added will also not be in the yellow sticker.

Generator fuel is added at the dealer as well, but it's included in the weight "if applicable".

That's because they know how much fuel it holds and how much it will weigh. They don't know what battery or batteries you'll be buying so don't add in a weight for them.
