My payload is around 2650 lbs. I have no idea what my drive-around weight is, I am mostly empty but with a Leer cab height cap that is probably 200 lbs or so.
My '14 dually has a GVWR of 14,000. It weighs right around 8200lbs. empty with a full tank of fuel. Put the cap on and the tools in it, now it weighs about 11,000lbs, still need to take a load of scrap metal to the yard to confirm my weights. So I should have about 3000lbs of payload left. Got to buy more tools!
2000 f250 xl, manual everything, 8800 lb gvwr and weighs 5400 lbs empty and 5600 lbs with me in her. 3200 lb payload. For that year the 250 and 350 were the same, so I don't feel bad putting an extra 1100 lbs in the bed to equal the 350's 9900 lb gvwr. I've had over 5000 lbs of brick pavers in the bed and she handled it just fine.
