I'm looking at two trucks and I'm having a hard time deciding. One is a modestly equipped '16 Ram 2500 CTD Tradesman and the other is a loaded '16 F-150 XLT 3.5L EcoBoost. I assume they will both tow a decent sized travel trailer, but I'm not sure what decent sized is. which one will do better? I will be looking for something between 25' and 30', and will be towing both short and long distances. My vehicle is also my mobile office and I drive about 30k miles a year. I've driven both on short test drives and they seem to ride okay, I didn't note a whole lot of difference. Which one will do better from a longevity standpoint, and which one will have better resale in 3-4 years with high miles?

Are you kidding????? The Cummins is not even in the same hemisphere towing as the Ford engine you are looking at. Not even close!!!
