On my 97 half ton Hoe the brakes seem to not grab nearly as well as on my dad's '95 2500 work truck. Even though his truck consistently weighs 6200-7000 pounds with all the tools and stuff in the bed. Do the 2500s have bigger rotors, calipers, or what? I feel so much more confident stopping his 7000 lb truck than my (maybe) 5000 lb suv. I don't see how it could have bigger rotors or calipers because the wheels are 16' on both. So what's the difference in the 2500 brakes vs 1500 brakes?
