On some other truck forums they say the GVW rating is just for the truck and when your towing a trailer the trailer rating is what matters. People are driving around with state approved 40k license plates with a 12k truck.

GVWR is indeed for just the truck. The V stands for vehicle, as in gross vehicle weight rating. What you're looking for is GCWR where C stands for combination, truck and trailer combined load.On some other truck forums they say the GVW rating is just for the truck and when your towing a trailer the trailer rating is what matters.

C3500HD frame for the "legal" GVWR/GCWR, 05+ F-550 axles for parts availability, common bolt pattern, GAWR, the fantastic brakes, and driver side drop front diff. Engine/trans of your choice, since it largely comes down to preference.
I was planning on beefing up a k2500 frame and running F-550 axles under an 80s burb before the used vehicle market went to **** and it became cheaper to build an ESV 2500.
