The HD truck wins hands down in the payload of the bare truck, but as far as towing (which is my concern mostly), there hardly seems to be a diff. 700 lbs is all. And the details on the max towing pkg that I can find & read for the 1500, looks like it includes everything that makes up a 2500HD.
700 pounds in tow rating is insignificant, I agree. But there are far more improvements in the 2500HD that make it better for towing an RV.
The NHT package for 2007-2013 was very good. It offered a lot of upgrades for heavy towing and reliability. I would not call it a 2500. It is not quite up to 8200GVWR F150 range even. That said, it should be plenty for a Nash 25R. Do you plan to replace that with anything heavier?
