Looks like the Cummins equipped weights ~1k pounds more for total weight. Add in the Aisin tranny (~200 lbs) would lower the payload even more. What exactly is your point? The difference is one thousand :B 3500-2500= 1000. Ford does better at 100 :W
His point is the difference is a marketing/classification one and not a capability one. I agree with him. If the same rear suspension can support over 3k in the gas model and the same brakes can stop 11,700 in the 3500, why is the diesel 2500 lower? Marketing to the 10k GVWR spec.
