You guys need to post on rv.net where an f550 is needed to haul a hamster lol
Any differences mentioned are essentially negligible at best. Any on ever Load up a tone in a reg f150 and an hd and measure squat. I bet there is little if any difference. Axles are same. Weight bearing of reg tires and wheels are still in spec.... add a leaf or bags and good to go.
But prove me wrong Cause seeing a squat difference would make me and others change our minds.

And actually the "proof" has to come from you. You have to "prove" that Ford is wrong in claiming higher GAWR, GVWR and GCWR for its HD Payload trucks. Why? Because Ford with all its fancy, over-educated engineers has a lot more credibility than some random Troll on the internet.
Anyway, I'm through wasting my time on this "conversation".

On more meds than ymeski
Since the OP posted this days ago and has no other posts I'm guessing this thread has served it's purpose. If the OP needs more info he can request it to be reopened.
