The subject I replied about is a F350 SRW aluminum vs steel and payloads and that is what my reply refers to when you read all my reply with numbers.
Got it. My point was that GVWR isn’t necessarily the true capability. It’s the number they chose to list.
I would think the Aluminum would be more capable with a heavier frame, but Ford doesn’t address it. They seem to have numbers in mind for some other reason.
At least, I can’t see why the newer trucks don’t have at least as high of a GVWR as my truck does. It seems everything that matters like transmissions, engines, and brakes are better in new trucks than my 2010.
