@jerad I really wish Ram would offer an increased GVWR for the 2500’s, Ford and GM do it. Saw the review on the new GM 2500 High Country and its GVRW was 11,300 IIRC. Funny thing is if you were to limit that truck to 10k its payload would be less than 1,700 lbs……Ram seems to still be the lightest truck of the big 3, loaded out Ram 2500 Limited that I was looking at has a payload of 1,980 lbs.
Heck, if ram just bumped them to 10,800 lbs I’d be happy. Loaded Limited with 2,800 lbs of payload would be great!

Wow, was that Limited a Cummins?
I've seen folks disregard the payload #s based on their own math and knowing the load rating of the axles. I'm not that good at math to try... lol
It’s got a CumminsWTF did they put on the truck?
I have a 6.4 2500 Limited with most of the 'stuff' and my payload is 2900#

Exactly.It takes less math than GVWR. Look at each axle weight, make sure it’s under the GAWR. That’s it.

Bet that would scoot with that big motor!Towed my bass boat to meet its new owner. It was a bitter sweet day to sell my dream boat I bought last March but life moves on!

100mph and the only part of the boat that is in the water is the prop!!
NiceTowing/carrying my Lance 825 TC....next stop will be somewhere in WY.
Yup its a short bed. I prefer the short-bed crew cab trucks in this generation of Ram. If I ever get a larger TC I may go Dually but for now it works for me.Ours was on a 8’ bed how do you like the short bed variant?
