The weights printed on the door label are most likely "GVWR" weights.... usually they have a total weight... and a weight for the front... and one for the back.... this is the maximum weight GM rates this vehicle with passengers.....and all the stuff.

Options really affect the overall weight more than people think. I had a friend a few years back weighed his '88 IROC ... which was loaded...... and had a few things inside.... and it weighed in at almost 3700# with 155# driver......
