My reg cab 2500 has as much payload as my now sold diesel crew cab dually!

How much payload can depend on cab configuration. are you getting one of the std 8' beds, or a short bed? 2wd, 4 wd? Ext cab, crew cab? leather or base work truck interior?

Get the rig that fits you butt the best! Otherwise, it is a pure guessing game as to which rig is really better.
