So you are saying that a Tacoma 1,500# over gross is ok while a power wagon with huge axles,brakes,frame,etc. is not suitable, even with the suspension modified to haul a camper ?
The Tacoma was not okay IMHO but it did show me to what extremes the truck can be pushed. The Ram 2500 can certainly carry the weight of a moderate slide-in camper especially with suspension mods. However, a 2500 Power Wagon has extra height and a soft suspension purpose built for off-roading, characteristics that make a camper dangerous. To be sure the Power Wagon suspension could be custom modified to carry the weight, but that sacrifices some off-road ability (and probably part of the warranty). Owner's choice but if it were me I'd more likely keep the truck stock and tow a small, rugged travel trailer.
