Does anybody know the payload and hauling capacities of the Chevy 3500 Dually Diesel compared to the F-350 Dually Diesel???? Cant find much info on the Chevy Website. I'm talking 06-07 models

See link below for tow ratings on all 2006 trucks....

Looks like they are both about 12,000 lbs. The Ford Super Duty F-350 is rated at 15,000 lbs.

I passed a couple Chevy full size engineer mules coming through Salt River Canyon this last weekend.. they looked pretty loaded down. If Chevy continues as before, the dually doesn't buy you anymore towing capacity than the 3/4 ton... if I'm remembering that correctly.
Thanks Mike,
I'm actually more interested in the Payload capacity. Need to know how much weight I can put in the bed and haul.

Thanks Mike, think I found what I was looking for after a little more research.

If this helps, I carry 475 gal. (about 4k lb.) of water, in the back of my 87 chev. dually. I would not take it on the frwy. also I carry the same tank, in my F-250 super duty.
i have an 05 chevy 2500 crew cab long bed 4x4 diesel and my friend has the same thing but a ford f250, fully loading both trucks with 30 foot trailers and bikes in the back he needs load bags to level out his truck and mine barely sags, hope that helps.

I've noticed that the Chevy does not seem to sag as much as the Fords but it seems the Ford has a higher payload and tow capacity than the Chevy.
before a Ford vs Chevy bashing starts :argue: , here are some stats :) >

As we all know,
If you want to look good, get a Chevy.
If you plan on working the truck, you better get a Ford.
I have Ford, GMC and Chevy.
by the way, I am selling the ford

The Ford has a camper option which includes a larger sway bar and an extra leaf spring.
