2016 Ram 2500 6.4 cooling

I'm new at this forum thing, so if i'm doing it wrong I apologize.
We're looking at a 2016 Ram 2500 with a 6.4 gas engine. Near as I can figure, it has the standard size radiator, oil and transmission cooler. The dealership hasn't been able to show me otherwise and keep telling me it won't be a problem. There will be some occasional towing (32 ft 5th wheel) and some extended periods of idling. Just wondered if anybody had any thoughts or suggestions.
  • I've never seen anything in the options list for a larger radiator. A Ram 2500 is good for 36' 5th wheels.
  • Find the build sheet, then look at all the codes there. That will tell you exactly how the truck left the factory.
