The manufacturers are going to publish the highest weight possible in the best configuration to achieve that highest weight (only the things required by J2807). Then it's left to the consumer to figure out how much weight the truck can handled in their particular configuration.
:S
The big issue with the advertising, is that much is pointed at being the biggest and best, as pointed out the too many look at the ONE MAX towing number! That is the MAX tow (pulling power) it ISN'T what the vehicle is capable of CARRYING.
Those numbers change, to lower numbers if a short bed, and if 4X2 for all brands.
Too many listen to the salespersons, RV salesperson "yep, you can tow that no problem!"
Truck salesperson "This 3/4 ton HD can pull any RV you want!"
