The weight for the 865 is officially "TBD".

The next heavier model, the 811, has a slideout and weighs 4569 lbs wet per TCM buyers guide.
Surely, without the slide it will be lighter.
The rear suspensions of the 2500 / 3500 Silverados of that year appear to differ only by nr. of spring leafs. I am not sure if any 3500 SRW will give me significantly more payload. The Crew Cabs are inherently heavier already.
If it was as easy as driving over to the nearest dealership where a couple dozen trucks await their new owner, I would likely trade the truck.
I may have to look for a smaller camper. But the interior of that AF is very appealing...
