- I towed a 2003 3500 Ram a few times before buying a Jeep. The 3500 towed fine but it was a "mouthful" for a toad.
- I tow a 2500 4x4 gas chevy and it does great. Razor in the bed and off we go. Only thing is a four door full size truck and tow bar makes for a long dinghy. I wish I had your 500 HP.
- Moved to Dinghy Towing forum from Towing.
- BTW, you probably want the "Dinghy Towing" forum, not the "Tow Vehicle" forum.
The name of the forum probably threw you off because you were probably thinking that "dinghy" referred to a boat. In RV parlance, it is a figurative term referring to the vehicle towed behind the RV to get around once at your destination. Another common term for this is "toad," a play on the word "towed" as in towed vehicle.
"Tow Vehicle" is a thing, not an action, in this case :) - Yes it's towable, should be fine....
- I don't know if the Dodge transfer case can go into neutral, but other than that, it should be fine. My friend tows a 2012 Chevy Diesel CC long bed 4X4 with his Razor up on top of the back of it without any problems. His has 500HP also.
