Yeah I had a dodge 1500 almost identical to yours but a 4x4 when we first started pulling a camper.Wasnt able to pull much weight with that truck.I believe our camper was 4700 lbs plus gear.But you can find something for sure just prolly wont be a fiver.Got a wopping 7 mpg too with that hemi! I could hear the fuel moving out of the fuel tank.Lol
Do yourself a favor and dont ask the dealer if you can pull it.I made that mistake years ago and almost killed myself trying to stop something my truck had no ability to tow.Do some research and learn yourself what tongue weight is,gcvr,axle rating etc before pulling the trigger on a camper.Im by no means a member of the weight police ,but use common sense.
Good luck with whatever you get and have fun!
