2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive
I’m looking at a new Ram 3500 diesel- why should I go with a four wheel over a 2 wheel drive. I's siding on a 2 Wheel. Pulling a Keystone RV Mountaineer 375FLF Fifth Wheels Hitch Weight 2,120 lbs...

No, with 2wd you get out & have a look before you drive into questionable places.
Taken a step further, a winch is for the guys who have 4wd drive & thought they could go anywhere only to find out that they really only have 2wd, then need to pull themselves out with a winch.
How true!! Long time saying here is, a 4WD will only get you in deeper, and then you are really stuck.
I am on my 6th 4x4, and the only one I haven't had really stuck, is my current one, with only 4,000 miles on it. At least it was deep snow, which requires a lot shoveling, more so when the frame is being held up by crusted snow, and no tires touching ground. Still better than being stuck in deep mud!!
