You may have seen pics of this truck and camper floating around the interwbez for the last few weeks. Here's an article about it that was published earlier today. Broken Frame on a RAM 3500

Does RAM provide a separate weight rating for truck campers?
I know Ford does. On my 2008 F250, the payload capacity is 2700lb on the door jam but per the Ford towing guideline document, I'm limited to just over 2200lb with a truck camper.
Yes, Ram does include a camper sheet. I have a truck identical to the broken truck, except mine is a 2022.
From the door sticker "The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed 5569#"
From the truck camper document "Cargo weight rating (pounds) 4738"
My camper weight is 4740# when 100% loaded with water, propane, full fridge, bottled water, beer. I weighed the truck at a CAT scale fully loaded as we left on trip, and then after the trip when the camper was off the truck. So although I'm 2 pounds over the truck camper document, it's very rare that the camper is 100% full of "Stuff".
