Gonecamping,
The 3500 may allow you down the road to get a bigger trailer that would otherwise be to much for the 2500 without needing a new truck.
I would have went that route if we could have found one.
What year truck? I know it was that way for the '13 & '14's, but not sure about the new '15's.
As for the brakes, they are the same on the 2500 & 3500's. Even from what I have found they are the same for the 11.5" and 10.5" axle (25/3500 diesel vs 2500 gas).

I think it's more like 1450 pounds extra payload. GVWR is 11,500 vs. 10,000. Cost varies by equipment. My friend got a GMC 3500 for $200 less than an equivalent 2500 with his exact equipment. He ended up ordering the 3500.
