It depends on the options chosen. If you choose a base 3/4t, you will most likely find tires rated around 3200 lbs on them. If you choose the blinged out version of the 1t SRW, you may find the wheel combination is also derating the axle capacity. I did generalize across the brands, but it will give someone a place to start before they dig down in the details of the class truck they want. Are they putting on OEM tires with a load index over 125 now? The base tires on a 3/4t are usually load index 121.
If you go down to the 1/2t class you will find that some have payloads that would exceed the RAWR or wheels. Here they are adding in some FAW capacity to make their truck payload numbers look higher on those semi-floating rear axles.
