Towing 2013 Dodge Ram big horn

I have a new 2013 Dodge Ram big horn, it is four wheel drive. I have instructions in handbook which I have read. I am pretty sure I understand them but am still a little shakey.
If any one has experience with this truck, I would really appreciate any additional data from anyone who knows first hand. Thanks.

  • My 97 Dakota was easy. It had manual levers for the transfer case and was a 5 speed manual tranny.

    Put the transfer case in neutral, tranny in second gear and release the clutch. No movement and all ready.

    Now the 2002 is quite another story. It has an auto tranny and a electrically actuated transfer case. There is a series of steps that have to be followed in order to disengage the drive-line. I have to pull out the book each time I need to tow it!

    As long as you follow the book step by step then you should be fine.
  • MAYO30, I plan to tow it behind our Motorhome which is a 2006 Revolution 40 LE. 400 horse CAT Diesel.
  • Follow the section entitled "Recreational Towing" and you'll be fine.
