If you want to play games with the numbers for licensing purposes, play games with the numbers. Ford already does that with their 10,000lb GVW F350 SRW.
Now GM is doing the same game with their 3500 srw trucks with 18 different gvwrs. Some like a 11025....11050...11100....but starts at 10000 gvwr on up to 12450 gvwr.
RV website police will have fun with all the different payloads for the same exact 3500 srw truck.
I have no issues with some 3/4 tons trucks having more usable in the bed payloads than some/same spec'd one ton srw trucks.
Just more gvwr/gawr options we have to choose from as we all have different size truck needs.
DRW vs SRW .....sure need a dead horse picture clicky.
Or GM 2500HD with a 11,500 ish GVWR with the diesel, very close to the 3500HD SRW rating. They just moved the 2500HD up a class to get away from the somewhat arbitrary 10,000lb limt based on classification
