Does this chart show the payload ratings you guys are talking about, or is it for something else?
Sorry, that chart sucks. Here is where I got it, page 23.

so from what I understand the 15MY trucks essentially have the max town now. the only thing max tow gets you now is 3.55 Elocker and a HD bumper. My 13MY max tow payload is 166? lbs. so really not getting much more than what I have now. still good for a half ton I guess.

If you look up VIN, you can see options... its a platinum lux w/ 3.31 EL + tow package + sunroof... In regards to max tow... the only difference is 3.55 vs the 3.31. Max tow no longer adds to the payload in '15 MY.
To give comparison, this truck is on par to a '14 max tow with similar options and is way more than a non max tow '14.

It just occurred to me that while 6.5 box adds cargo space it also adds whatever additional weight in materials thus reducing payload. I ordered a Lariat SCREW with 6.5 box. Would be kinda ironic if my bigger box actually carries less weight than the 5.5. Anyone have any numbers from 2014 6.5 vs 5.5 to compare?

Just compared a bunch of window stickers for similarly equipped Lariats where some were 145" wheelbase and some where 157". 145" were all listed at 7000 lb GVWR and 157"s were all 7050 lb GVWR. So the 6.5 box on a SCREW adds 50 lbs to GVWR.
