Pondering between Ram 2500 or 3500
Hi guys and gals, I've finally decided to trade in my 2011 Ram 1500 for either a 2500 or 3500. I have an older heavy TT that has a tongue weight of 1,050 lbs. When loaded, we have about 7,500 to 8,...

Anyway, The 2500 has the same type of coil spring rear suspension as my current truck and I'm nervous about dropping 1,000 lbs on the back.
Yer' joking right. :)
Your old 1500 is nothing like a 2500 with coils. Apples vs pickles.
My neighbor lady has a '15 2500 4x4 crew cab coils 6.4 Hemi with 4.10 gears. She pulls a 34' 17.5k GN horse trailer all over the western usa. I've pulled her trailer with my '03 2500 Dodge/Cummins. My truck squats more than her 2500 with coils.
One member ib516 towed a 37' 12k lb 5er with a '14 Ram 2500 6.4 with coils. He says the truck didn't sag anymore than his previous '07 with leaf springs.
I'm not a bigger is better fan member. You'll be fine with room to spare with the 2500 truck.
