Yes your right it would be... But looking at it from a legal standpoint from the insurance side of things you better have a bottle of lube ready if there is any kind of accident or traffic stop while hauling that kind of weight with a 1500.. No matter how much work you put into it the truck is still a 1500... I agree its stupid but hey you gotta play by the rules..

Yah the VIN will still show up as a 1500. Strange but they won't bother with weight ratings on non-commercial vehicles around here. All I have to do is say I pieced the truck together with a lot of 1500 body parts There's enough piece-mealed vehicles around here to fool 'em.. But all I would have to do is grab some body parts off of a 3500 with the different VIN LOL.. Got em fooled already. Wait, i forgot about the title and registration... Oh well. Just a big dream that probably will never happen...

I'm a little slow but the point to a diesel 1500 isn't for the same towing power of the 25/3500 Diesels, but more for fuel economy.
After all, it would just be a 1500. The idea of having a full power Cummins (by todays standards) under the hood is kinda stupid.
Just look at Moochoff, I'm sure he'll see considerably better fuel economy with his 4BT then the 318/360 could even dream of.

you have got to be the most thick headed 17YO i have ever met!
you have been told NUMEROUS times about getting a truck to do the job. stop thinking your 1500 can do it all, no matter the mods you have done, its still illegal!
