When comparing GVWRs for different manufacturers, they only tell half the story. For years Ford had a SRW that had virtually the same GVWR as GM's dually. The difference was in the basic weight of the trucks, the Ford was very very heavy and the extra weight was the heavy truck, it did not contribute to any extra load carrying capability.
Bottom line...you have to look at ALL the numbers, GVWR, cargo capacity, weight of the truck, etc.
