Hi All, we have Ram 1500 4wd quad cab 5.7 Hemi 3.92 axle ratio and 20 inch tires.We have been towing dry weight travel trailer that is 4500. We are now considering a dry weight trailer of 5700. We would put about
600 lbs of stuff so would be 6200. I spoke with local Dodge dealer and also call Chrysler (yep the company) to ask towing questions. The truck is rated to pull loaded trailer up to 7500. At 6200 we are well within the range. The truck has tow package and tranny cooler.It bugs my husband that even when towing the old trailer, the tranny shifts a lot. I understand it's normal but it bugs him that it is constantly shifting. ANY feedback from you guys (and gals!) out there on towing with this vehicle would be great. If he needs to quit worrying about it, PLZ say so! thanks so much! anxiousley awaiting responses. He is taking trailer for a test spin tomorrow. Tawnya-Kennewick,Wa.- posted
