It's a 3500 he's talking about. I pull a 36.5' 5er with mine, and I am under all of my ratings (axles, GVWR & payload) when hitched up. My truck's payload as per the yellow "Tire & loading information" sticker is just under 2800#.

It appears the GVWR doesn't much matter between a QC and a MC for SRW trucks. But if you look at a DRW MC they will have a 1700 lb loss in GVWR vs a QC DRW.
Is that link someone provided the truck your looking at OP? Montana location, if so look good at the bottom side for rust. Lots of salt on the roads up here in the winter.
