You'd be surprised how many 3/4 ton trucks are hitting near the same limits and many of those diesel engines rob enough payload to drop it into the 1/2 ton range of 1800lbs. FAR too many 5th wheel guys dont care about this and tow with pin weight that exceed payload and thus puts them way over GVWR.
The payload ratings on diesel 3/4 ton trucks mean literally nothing. They're heavy but class restricted to a max 10k lb GVWR. That's why most "5th wheel guys" use axle and tire ratings to determine carrying capacity for that type of truck.
Riiiiight....wink wink
You are welcome to be ignorant on the topic if you'd like but you'd be well advised to stop commenting on it until you do some research. You seem like you're bright enough to figure it out if you actually looked into it.
