Jimnlin, no, GM doesn’t beat Ford by an significant amount and hasn’t for 20 years. I’m not saying that an individual truck from one brand can’t beat another individual one. My ‘06 F350 SRW had a 11,400 GVWR.
I'm looking at Fleet Ford weight specs and GM weight specs from GM ordering guide.
Your talking F350 SRW numbers and I posted what GM 2500 trucks numbers were....and yes GM 2500 trucks still kick Fords F250 arzz in GVWR and RAWR specs.
The gvwr/rawr numbers I post are just that. I could care less what others think about them or even if they do or don't use them.
Some one is still stuck in the era when our 3/4 ton and one ton trucks used 16" LT235/85-16 E tires /wheels with 3042 lbs capacity and had a 6080 rawr. Those days are long gone years ago.
Today its not OEM 18"/20" tires as the weak link in our trucks gawr's but most of the time its the mfg OEM wheel ratings or some times std front/rear spring packs.
