I just read on the official Ram website there were two different specs for payload for a 2019 Power Wagon. One is listed at 1450 and the other 1510. Anyone know what makes them different?
Also,my 2016 is rated at 1,250. How were they able to go up to 1450/1510?

Re: 2019 Payload specs
The Payload value is based on the options that are on the truck. It is effectively 8510 lbs minus the empty truck weight.Fastnlight wrote: ↑Wed Oct 23, 2019 10:10 amI just read on the official Ram website there were two different specs for payload for a 2019 Power Wagon.

The gen 4 Power Wagons are 3/4 ton trucks with flexy springs roughly equivalent to a 1/2 ton.
If you want tow or haul as a standard Ram hemi 3/4 ton, your easiest and cheapest solution is to install airbags...

Ram hemi 3/4 ton crew-cab payload is around 3100 lb
