My son is interested in buying a family member's RAM to tow a small couples trailer, but I was surprised to find the low tow rating of 4400, and max payload of 1794. The rear axle gearing is 3.21, and has the 8-speed transmission. It already has the electric trailer brake controller. He would...

So, I have been going back and forth, literally losing sleep over this first world problem. I'm looking at a 2017 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab 4x4 with the 8 speed 3.21 rear end (payload 1510, max trailer weight 7,990). Our rig is a Keystone Cougar X-Lite 29bhs that comes in at 32.5 total...

I was just curious what folks were getting for mileage with their loaded trailers. I have always been curious what the ecodiesel would get towing a similar load, but, that would require the 3.92 gears to get about 8500# max towing. I have the 8 speed trans, 5.7, and 3.21 gears. On my last trip...

I want to put a popup slide-in camper in the bed (preferably 4-Wheel Campers model) which weighs about 1700-1800 lbs loaded. That pretty much maxes out a 1500 payload from what I read. But...

Hey Folks, Looking to Tow a 6500lb(dry weight) travel trailer with my 2012 Dodge Ram Big Horn. Any thoughts on what to expect or any experiences towing travel trailers with the new edition?

Before and after pics of my new camper shell. It was installed at Bethea Truck Tops and Accessories in Fayetteville, NC. They had excellent service and product knowledge and the price was $2250 including tax and install with several options (Thule tracks, removable front slider window, gear...
