Looking to get opinions. I have a 2021 pretty fully loaded Laramie with the 5.7 ET. Love the truck, it's my DD, don't really tow but maybe eventually would tow my jeep around, which leads me to the post. I built a 2500 the way I would order it - mostly loaded laramie, megacab, cummins, and it's just shy of 80K and a payload of only ~1850ish. My current payload is ~1350ish.
Am I crazy in thinking that's a huge price jump for not much gain in functionality? My sticker was 64, but I paid 50 before TTL. My understanding is the 2500s have way less wiggle room on price in normal times, so the price difference is really like 20-25K. My initial thought is that its really not worth it, in general, to get a 2500 over a 1500 or 3500. seems like a strange in between that compromises all around.
