Max Payload vs. Pin Weight (Ford, Ram, Chevy)
Hi, I recently bought a new 5th wheel and truck to tow it. I got a 40 foot Open Range with a 2500 pound pin weight. I was looking at fairly loaded SRW long bed diesels from Ford, Chevy and Ram...

I don't know where bowler1 is getting his payload capacities for the various brands. I just bought a 2019 F-350 SRW shortbed truck a week ago, and I looked at payload capacities on all three brands before purchasing. I think there are several places you can find the specs from. But from the specs I found, all three brands in this configuration, with the highest GVWR option, had almost the exact same payload capacity, which was about 3900 lbs.
I've owned several GM diesels, and several more Ram diesels, but my last Ford pickup truck was a 1993 F-350 with a 460 ci gas engine. I went with Ford this time because I liked the way it drove the best of the three. There wasn't enough difference between brands to matter when it came to payload capacity.
