Payload Ratings and Campers

After seeing some of the messages from folks about overloaded trucks, relatively small payloads etc for even 1-ton trucks, I have been trying to find out the payload / camper certificate ratings for the various truck models. Here is what I have found so far in various threads about overloading, perhaps some of you can post numbers for your trucks if they are not already on the list, please be sure to specify tranny and rear end ratios. I would really like to see how the Duramax GMs and the new Fords stack up against the DC products.

The data on the '97 Dodge 3500 is known correct, I took it out of my own manuals and camper certificate...!
