Just for reference: my 2500 HD GMC Limited. No real difference. Thankfully, for what I use it for the New 2500 Mega Cab Limited will do just fine for me

Pretty decent payload. Is yours the gas engine?

Wow!

I don't have the truck yet. It should arrive in the next week or two. But I checked and Ram Trucks recognizes the VIN. But from what I'm told, the FCA website doesn't mean much.

Here is the corrected payload and tow capacity.


Hopefully, a 2019 3500 Laramie is built. I'll find out when it arrives.

On the meantime, here's the door sticker of my 15 year old Ford F350 XLT CC DRW V10. Based on what I'm seeing, I suspect the RAM truck will be a downgrade regarding payload. LOL. No big deal. I planning on use the Ford as the workhorse for heavy loads and the Ram as the fun truck for towing our lightweight 5th wheel.

That doesn’t mean much. The same sit e for my VIN says 4140. The door sticker says 37xx.

Corrected for accuracy.

Those numbers arnt right. Not even remotely close! Lol. Ur payload will be in the high 3000s and your towing will be 24000 lb give or take. Not 5000 lb lol. There is a serious error there. This truck will be rated mich higher than your old f350

If ur new truck is a dually the towing number that thast site shows is around what ur payload will be. Not sure what that 500lb number in there is. U can load more than that in a 85 tocoma let alone a 1 ton ram.

No kidding. When I originally posted the payload and tow capacity, it was based on the VIN taken directly from the Ram website. When I was told that the payload and tow capacity based on the VIN didn't mean much, I edited the screenshot from Ram. It's kind of funny that it took so long for anyone to notice. LOL.

So, it appears there is about a 11% reduction in payload capacity from VIN and the actual sticker. That's stupid if you ask me. If you input a VIN and the payload and tow capacity is is fake, why have a website to check on payload and tow capacity? 10-11% is quite a big error.

The Ram provided VIN payload capacity on my 2019 3500 DRW HO Aisin (and the larger axle) is 5560 lbs. With an 10.6% reduction, the new truck's payload capacity could be around 4969#. So, I'm glad I'm keeping my 2005 F350 V10 gasser because I'll use it for putting heavy loads in the bed, which I do often enough. I'll pamper the new 3500 HO Ram and use it light loads and towing, and I'll keep it out of the dirt.

BTW, I'm not putting down the Ram. Just stating the facts as best as I know them. I find it odd that a 15 year old truck with a gas engine potentially has a higher payload capacity. So be it. I'm still looking forward to getting the new truck.

[Ramit530]

Wow... 400# less than mine... what do you have on your truck?

I am guessing Ram Boxes!!

 

[Omarf4]

Ram boxes, 4x4, anti spin rear differential, dual batteries, dual alternators...
Was surprised also when researching this thread before purchase and then finally seeing the payload sticker. The options that were in the truck were worth it as I still have 5-600 lbs of spare payload when towing plus passengers.
