It's not much different than other 'half ton' trucks
Sum of both axles on most any vehicle will always be higher than the GVWR which is based on the 'whole' vehicle not just axle ratings.
This is mostly true... However, Ford will take away from the difference to give higher payload numbers on their Max Tow F150. Verified it on trucks with my own eyes. Also, my Van GVWR is the same as the sum of the axles... literally zero wiggle room there. So it is not always the case.
I did find something interesting about the gooseneck package.
Curt makes a ball and safety chain loop kit for the Nissan Titan XD... it also advertises that it works with the GM twins underbed gooseneck package. So it seems that the gooseneck for the GM trucks and the Nissan Titan are the same.
Here is a
Link to that ball and loop kit.
Thanks!
