and as always NEVER look at max tow rating...in your case 8500 lbs....although your truck can PULL that much weight it will never be able to CARRY it...it is a useless figure
and btw your hitch weight will be closer to 900lbs....way too much trailer IMO.
But a cat scale run through ready to camp would be the only true way to know...hard to do on a trailer you are looking to buy.
This post is just ridiculous..... A Hemi Ram with a WDH can't tow a 7000# trailer. Right.
To the OP, keep an eye on rear axle weight and you will be fine. In some circumstances the 3.55 gears work out better, as it may allow you to run a lower rpm in a lower gear at cruise. And the Hemi is a great engine for work. Enjoy!
