Thanks, Steve. That makes more sense to me. I'm sure there is some difference between shortbed and longbed because of an overall weight difference but would think the shortbed would have the higher payload capacity unless there is a difference in suspension. In any case, within a weight class I personally don't think there is a significant difference in payload between shortbed and longbed. Now if you include dually and single rear wheels, then there definitely is a payload difference. I have been wrong before, though.
