If you are talking payload, the rear of the truck doesn’t change that much in weight between a gasser and diesel. The difference is on the front axle between engine types. Because of the vehicle class weight limits, it makes it look like it is less
My thoughts too. Available load on the rear axle is practically the same gas or diesel and that's the axle that takes the weight of your trailer so if I'm not crossing that I'm happy. If you have pulled with a diesel you'll understand
The 250/2500's are more capable than what the rating suggest.
