Here’s the 6500 and trailer. The one ton was a 4 door long bed GM truck. I don’t have the GN trailer anymore. But hitch weight wasn’t a concern for dump truck pintle trailers so the axels are pretty far back. The 6500 has a 10’ bed and the axel is almost at the back of the bed so I think the wheel base on the trucks would be pretty close. View attachment 672633View attachment 672634
Throw a tape on the center axle to center axle on the truck and I will throw one on my extended cab F350, or maybe someone else can with a four door. (Although F350 wheelbase is probably on the net somewhere). The best way for us to confirm this would be to find 2 same size trailers and drive in a circle behind the same truck. I think axle position is going to be the reason for any differences.
