2500 or 3500 what's the major difference?

FWIW, my friend has a Ford F250 with the 6.0. His front and rear axle are the same exact as the F350 of that year. Same part number. His wheels are the same, he has E rated tires that can support that weight. His brake rotors and pads are the same part number from Ford. His 6.0 is the same 6.0 they put in the F350. Same transmission too.
The only difference is that he doesn't have overload springs in the rear.
It kinda makes me wonder why more manufacturers don't offer softer springs in the rear for a more comfortable ride and factory air bags to support higher weights. For sane people (defined as people who buy a truck based upon its merits, not simply based upon brand infatuation), ride quality comes into play. Factory air bags (even as a $500 option) would potentially provide a much better ride empty and loaded.
