Marketing numbers. But most people do not look fully into those numbers and only see the one that appears to meet their needs. You could tow a large heavy bumper pull construction trailer and stay within that payload. And no doubt many work trucks do just that. But start putting some of that weight in the bed with a 5th wheel or gooseneck and it all goes out the door.

To make matters worse, the payload rating of say an F350 SRW can vary from around 3,000 lbs to well over 4,000 lbs depending on the configuration of the truck. Similar variations in the lower ratings of F250s.
