No doubt the truck can handle it but if loads weights didn't matter they wouldn't have 2500 and 3500 models. If they come back and say exceeding the gvwr rating is OK, print out and save that response.

My question did state that I was over the payload rating for the truck. My take is that pin weight and cargo weight are two different things. Why would a truck be rated to pull a trailer that would automatically exceed the cargo weight? It seems to me the GCWR is what they are looking at.
