2019 GMC 3500HD Options

Snow plow option? I wouldnt. Load the truck with features like you want it, load the camper and go. A 3500 SRW should have around a 11,000 GVWR. You can pretty much guess that it will scale ready to go around 7500 to 8000 pounds if this is a duramax. Figure 800 pounds less if you go gas. Add the campers weight plus 800 pounds for stuff. That is a ball park number you should weigh.
Just looked at the numbers. The camper is listed at 2800 pounds, so personally I would look at a 4000 number for the camper loaded ready to go. IF the truxk has a 11,000 GVWR and IF the truck scales 7000 pounds, then your good. Otherwise your lokely going to exceed mfg GVWR number.

..... I should have said 2019 GMC 3500 Duramax Dually LB CC 4WD with an AF865... My apologies....

not sure about GM but with ram if you have a truck with a snow plow prep option you get a sticker that states that the truck is not recommended for truck camper use, some body must have tried to plow snow with a camper loaded and had a warranty claim ? When we ordered our current truck for TC use we watched the weight closely so we would end up with the largest payload we could get but of course that means 2WD , Gas, even buckets seats gives you a few more pounds of payload on paper, but our crew cab DRW 6.4 with 4.10's has almost a 7K payload rating and 6k camper rating 14k GVWR, the gas motor handles the camper weight and we are not towing anything ,of course its not like our last diesel truck but works for us .

Since your 3500 is a dually it will be rated to carry the weight of that camper with no problems. The snow plow prep package usually includes higher rate front springs, which may actually be helpful with the camper. I just bought a 2019 F350 and it came equipped with both the snow plow package and the camper package (and a fifth wheel hitch prep package, and a gooseneck hitch prep package, and pretty much every other prep package they could throw on it). So the snow plow package and camper package are not mutually exclusive, at least not with Ford. Finding a truck with both sure is hard to do though. I looked through hundreds of trucks in on-line inventory, and only found two or three trucks that had both packages.

On the 2500 and 3500 single rear wheel, the snow plow package gets you a 6,000 lb front axle rating rather than the standard 5,200 Lb rating. GM allows camper packages and snow plow prep without restriction, although you can't have a roof window or sliding rear cab window with the sp prep.

For 2019, you get all that he mentioned but the alternator is 170 amps, instead of the 145.

Doesn't the snow plow prep give you dual alternators? If that's the case, I vote yes.
