You mean that a lighter but otherwise identical truck cannot haul more in the way of cargo and passenger weight than a heavier unit with the same running gear under it? Ford wasted one heck of a lot of money switching to aluminum or not asking this forum before going ahead with making lighter pickups. Naught from Naught is still Naught.
Sorry but I spec'd too many dump trucks and dump trailers to buy your premise. Throw out Ford's ratings if you don't believe them and start loading the bed and see which one hits the bump stops first. It will be the one that started out heavier.
