Sorry for not wording my op as clearly as possible. I meant ordering the options such as heavy duty front end, heavier rear end, camper pkg, tow pkg and the like to increase the payload. I did know that many options such as diesel, extended cabs, and other power options add weight and reduce payload.

I will play around with that build model and I'm considering air bags and the 19.5" tires and wheels.
Just so you know I'm not a complete newb having worked as wildland firefighter in CA,ID and OR driving fire trucks such as this one below:
