You can't compare Ford's 22 configurations. You have to compare the one closest to the Titan in price and options. Then that truck is the one you would compare the payload figure to.
So the Titan is stuck at 2150. No thanks.
Just saying you could put 800HP in the Titan but without an increased payload rating the capacity to tow or general RV usability does not increase.
JMHO
Am I missing something? Current model 3/4 ton Ram 2500 CTD 4x4 CC SB ST's only have around 2200 lbs. of payload (typical door sticker).
If the 1/2+ ton Titan is "stuck at 2150", it's got good company.
We don't really need to have this discussion again, do we? The 3/4 ton diesel payload rating is all about the 10,000 GVWR limit the manufacturers are trying to stay under.
Yes, I agree there may be some credence to what you say.
However, what if you're involved in a serious accident and a trigger-happy lawyer on the opposing side sees your payload sticker and concludes you were overloaded? The legal burden of proof that weren't overloaded is all on you. Rather doubt Ram is going to come to your defense. To my knowledge that payload sticker is the only legal payload/GVWR document your truck has.
