This seems to be the third in a series. First the OP asked what all the acronyms concerning payload meant. The answers pointed in the direction of a 2500 or HD1500 series pickup. The second was something about "We purchased a half ton pickup and are disappointed with the low payload rating". I suspect the fourth will be "What can we do to increase the payload and stop the swaying with our tow vehicle?" Not picking on the OP, happens all the time on here. The same answer will always be, "Buy a combination that works well together and has a little extra capacity, "Just in case the kids grow up, or you decide to take a generator along".
