[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 637548, member: 2862"] My opinion IS based on engineering, pure and simple, backed by other engineers who work at Edmunds, Kelly and the Automotive Engineers Society. By "trade rags", I don't mean Car and Driver or Auto Trend garbage reporting. The Titan does not have as big a binder as ANY of the Big 3. Nor does it have as much HP. Nor does it have as much curb weight. Insufficient HP + inadequate binders + light construction = OVER-RATED CAPACITY. My opinion is also based on decades of truck use, abuse and repair. Ford, Chev and Dodge have always under-rated their trucks, at least so far as construction is concerned. You may have hauled 2500 lbs in your Titan once, but I can't even begin to count the number of times I've overloaded my 1/2, 3/4 and 1 ton Dodges and had them hold up time and time again. Ditto the Fords and Chevs I've had around here. Anyway, I'm out of this one. To the original poster: Good luck with whatever you end up with. If it were me though, I'd really be looking at something else like a Toy or Detroit Iron. Rod [/QUOTE]
