3/4 ton and 5ver question...Yes, yet another one.

This is not for me, but for a friend who is looking at possibly buying a 5ver in the future. He has a 08 Ford F250 4WD, Diesel. Cargo capacity is only 1869lbs. RGAWR is 6100. He is going to weigh...

I don't see any issue. On newer 3/4 tons, the only difference between most SRW 1 tons and 3/4 tons is a lighter rear spring pack. Fix that if necessary with airbags/timbrens and they're the same truck, or arguably the supplemented 3/4 ton is more depending on the 1 ton it's being compared to.

To me the three consumer truck classes available are half tons, heavy duty SRW and heavy duty DRW.
