Irony: The number of members recommending a fifth wheel with more tongue weight compared to a travel trailer. Even though the OP has stated that a fifth wheel will likely put him over his cargo ratings.
The payload rating on his particular truck is meaningless because it's driven by the class 2 truck GVWR limit. His truck is literally identical to a SRW 3500 aside from the rear suspension, and if you look at the axle rating it's only 500 lbs lower than a SRW 3500. Tires, wheels, brakes, axles, chassis...all the same.
