My 1999 F350 Dually had a GVWR of 11,600 ish...the truck sitting empty on the scales with a full tank of gas and me, my wife, and my boys was at about 8,000 lbs. so I had around 3,600 lbs of payload after my family was loaded up.

The 2014 3500 SRW diesel in this test has an 11,700# GVWR and just a hair under 4000# payload.
Thank you for making the point with real world numbers! :)
