I believe it, especially if it has transmissions and TRS drives. That is a heavy package to begin with. I remember Cafe and Bullets weighting in almost the same when rigged. Heavy boats.

Then you better not buy a NEW diesel. I have both new Dodges. A Diesel 3500 with the Asisn 6speed auto and the Dodge 2500 HD 6.4 Hemi. I tow a lot. That Hemi will runs better with 10K on the back than the Diesel.. They have choked the hell out the diesel and Mileage is a pro for buying anymore either

Was looking at the dodges. Just Bullet did head gaskets and oil cooler in my 6.0. Now looks like injectors tired or sinking money in it.
