Another "Can I Tow This" question.....

I'll chime back in. My trailer is about 6500 lbs with a tongue weight in the 850 lb range. My truck is typically loaded with a 120 lb generator and probably 250 lbs of other stuff. Add that to me and my wife, and we are usually 100 or 200 lbs over our GVWR. I've towed with this combination since I bought this truck new, and did it with a '97 F150 before that. I pay attention to routine maintenance, tire pressure, and ensure everything is dialed in properly. I tow in the mountains of the northwest usually. My set up has always been rock solid under all conditions that I've managed to encounter, including emergency maneuvers while descending twisty mountain slopes. Absolutely no white knuckle experiences with my Ram. The old F150 required constant concentration, not so for the newer Ram.

In fact, I think you could garner good info by going to youtube and checking out some of the "fast lane truck" towing tests. They tow heavier than you will be and rave about that truck.
