We did look at the 3500s, but they had a much harsher suspension, which made the ride more uncomfortable for my wife, who's got a very bad back.
Yes, the Diesel 2500 payload was a concern (it is around 2300 lbs). Since it's just the wife and I and we don't plan upon getting a huge trailer or 5th wheel at this time, we thought we'd get by with the 2300 lb payload. Also most of the trailers that we liked were all under 30' and not that heavy. The same truck with the 6.4L has a 3300 lbs payload, so we did consider getting a gas powered truck.
