Pretty much what I'm seeing is that the 2500 gas trucks are 6000 but the 2wd crew cab diesels and Mega Cabs are 6500. The old thing is the 4wd crew cabs are 6000. Also I just realized the offer a 2500 cab chassis (bed off) truck now. It also carries the 6500 RAWR. The 3500 SRW trucks are 7000 across the board.
The 6.4 and CTD trucks with 18/20" wheels are all 6,500. That's going to constitute the bulk of 2500s sold these days, or at least it's the vast majority of what I see out on the roads.
This is mine. Crew cab short box 4wd Cummins.

I see, so the wheel/tire upgrade is what's doing it. I was just going by Ram body builder. Makes since. The standard 17" tire is not rated high enough for the 6500.
Boy, if I could get a 2500 with an Aisin I would be set!. A 3500 SRW Limited is impossible to come by without ordering. I have seriously thought about trading my 3500 for a 2500. If I could only get the Aisin/HO Cummins. I wish Ram would just let you choose what drive train you want in which truck.:S
How come you're tempted to change your 2500 for a 3500? Empty ride quality?
