Wee bit over weight
Well I finally got around to weighing my camper. I have an Arctic Fox 811 and carry it on a 2012 F350 SRW. My GVWR is 11500 lbs. I first weighed my truck with a full tank of gas and nothing els...

And isn't the AF811 routinely marketed as a camper for 3/4 ton trucks?
Directly, probably not, but the fact that there's far more "short bed" 811s built would imply that it is for a 3/4 ton truck, since 1 ton short beds are rare, if they even exist.
BUT, up until a few years ago, the GM short bed truck had a lighter GVWR than a similar truck from Ford or Dodge. So in effect, you could do an 811 shorty on a Dodge or Ford and be closer to GVWR of that truck, since they had higher GVWRs.
Up through the 2010 model year, the GM trucks had the same weight ratings going back through 2001 when the HD series came out.
2500HD was 9200 GVWR.
