While I will not say that a new Ram 2500 is just as capable as a new 3500 SRW. I will say that it is not too far behind it with what it can actually handle and it can definitely handle a lot more than its payload regulated rating. Although Ram does think that a diesel 2500 can tow just as much as a 3500 SRW since they both have the same 17k tow rating. It is just the payload that is the big difference due to the GVWR restrictions of each vehicle class.
Yep. Most overblown topic on this site, imo. The real world difference is very minor and can be more than rectified with a couple hundred bucks spent on timbrens or bags. But for those looking to overcompensate on this site I guess it's a big deal.
