New to 5th wheeling has started...

Very good looking rig.

There are fewer 5th wheels you can't pull compared to those that you can pull with that beast! :-)
Congrats, awesome truck.

Just buy whatever you want. That will haul it..

B.O.

They are a towing beast. Use the EB and enjoy

Congrats! Nice Looking truck. That's what I'm thinking of buying next year.

Regarding your question "What are my towing numbers?"

The payload number should be on the driver's door jamb sticker. Is your truck a Bighorn? The payload number I found on Rambodybuilder (depending on options) for a 2014 Ram 3500 Bighorn Crew Cab Long Bed 4X4 DRW 3.73 is 5600 (Aisin trans) or 5750 (68RFE trans). The Trailer + Equipment Max Weight is 23430 (Aisin trans) or 18580 (68RFE trans).

Have fun!

Yep, Big Horn.

I'm guessing I must have the 68RFE since the "sticker" didn't show anything about an Aisin trans...
I'll take a look at the door when I head out to work in a few hours.

thanks for the info. :)

Wife and I are like kids in a candy store, waiting to get the 5er and go camping. I have a feeling we might be getting a camper sooner than later. :)

what are my towing numbers... like... what is the Maximum weight I can tow safely for a 5th wheel

Ha Ha your a funny guy scot :B

Great looking truck, you have good taste.

Not positive about that truck but I believe your GVWR is 14k lbs and the GCWR ( gross combined weight rating) meaning the truck and trailer (s) is about 37K lbs if you got the Aisin tranny and 4.10 gears.
Enjoy whatever you get.

Dang, that is one nice truck. congrats and enjoy

Well why not tell us what you would like in a 5er. As stated before the 5ers that you will have no issues with, far out number the ones that would be an issue.
That is one sweet truck, your DW may appreciate a really sweet set of running boards or step tubes.
