What do you think is the top payload rating among new one-ton trucks? All the advertising goes toward horsepower/torque and towing capacity, but what configuration is king of payload?
Ratings are easily found by googling. Range from a little over 7,400 lbs for Chevy to a little over 7,800 lbs for Ford. Ram in between. But all those ratings are for a very particular configuration of cab, bed, engine, drive train, etc. that virtually no one actually buys. All for bragging rights.
