Ford towing guide puts me at 15,900 max loaded trailer:

I have the F250 diesel srw 4x4 crew cab
http://www.ford.com/trucks/superduty/specifications/payload/
puts my payload at over 3k on all options. I'm not sure which option is mine though, it's either 3150 or 3250 max payload
Here are the specs for Heartland camper:
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) 15,500 lbs
Dry Weight 12,745 lbs
Hitch Weight 2,185 lbs
Carrying Capacity 2,755 lbs
and her is the KZ camper:
UVW (Unloaded Vehicle Weight)* 12,920
Dry Hitch Weight* 2,290
Dry Axle Weight* 10,630
NCC (Net Carrying Capacity) 2,580
GVWR 15,500
So what I'm really wondering is what is the GVWR actually entail on their specs? Estimated packed weight? Meaning, for the KZ for example, it is dry at 12,920, but I can load it up to 15,500, but nothing more than that, making 15,500 the actual max the camper would ever be? If that is the case, then I think I'm fine, maybe pushing the top end, but for 99% of my camping, it is all within 1 hour of driving.
