1/2 ton SAE J2807 tow ratings
Looks like Ford is on board as well as Ram. GM to follow. http://www.autonews.com/article/20140210/RETAIL03/302109959/detroit-3-adopt-common-standard-for-tow-ratings

Not sure how this got turned into a Ram bash fest but what I find funny is this.
"Mike Levine, a spokesman for Ford, told Automotive News that the 2015 F-150 will get a new towing rating to go with its new aluminum body.
"As a founding member of the SAE trailer towing committee, we will meet SAE trailer towing standards," he said." :E :h Now he is one hell of a spin master!!!
Lets see Chrysler, Ford and Ram were all going to use the new standards in 2013 but then Ford decided that they were going to take a big hit.
" But Ford decided not to publish lower tow ratings for its 2013 F-150, spurring other automakers to follow suit."
Maybe by bring a 3500 Ram up you might be able to distract from the real story. :Z
