Payload Ratings are a farce
Spent months shopping for a new Superduty, ended up ordering one that fit our criteria- XLT, Powerstroke, 3.55 rear-end, Camper package, fifth wheel, etc. We were debating back and forth between a F2...

Try going to a scale to find the actual payload and you might get even more of a surprise. Our F250 is waaay less than the sticker figure (around 700-800 lbs IIRC). Mostly due to the cap, bed liner and hitch head but not sure why otherwise. But it's still a lot more than we need.
I sure wish we didn't have all the added weight of the 4x4 junk that takes away a fair bit of payload compared to the same truck in a 4x2 version. Do the sticker payload figures reflect the actual/true added wt. of the 4x4 drivetrain compared to a 4x2?
