I dont believe it..
Here we go with the 1500's being low payload, grocery getters. For the record...I believe 4 door trucks with 6' beds are grocery getters...or as my boy say "convertible SUV's".
Guess that 1668 sticker on my truck is really only 668#....must be a smudge in front of it.

yeah I know....1668 is 182 light of 1850. Must have been that factory installed tow package that did me in.
gotta go now...wife wants milk and bread.
OK your 1668 may be right.. You know why?
Reg cap 2 wheel drive...
If it was a 4 door with options and 4x4 the payload stays similar less weight of 4x4, 2 more doors, and two more people in the back seats.. ( His kids)
Now tell me what the OP's payload is remaining? ( Note we dont know what he has yet) That 1800 just got reduced big time IMO...
500 for 4x4 stated in every manual I have read... so 1800 is now 1300. Two 100 lbs kids and gear now we down to 1000 say. Add the wife 100 ( If she is skinny and we down to 900.. And it can be a lot worse... Most never know...
So your 2x2 reg cab fitting 3 people is of course going to retain payload...
Its a no brainer if you know about trucks, payloads , and weights...
Id love to tow with a reg cab work truck 2 wheel drive any day... Thos trucks have the most capcity period...
My opinion of course... But true.. Hope someone can prove me wrong....:)
