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

I'm probably opening a huge can of worms but I'll ask anyway. I'm looking at a 2019 Grand Designs Imagine 2500RL and plan on towing it with a 2015 Ram 1500. The payload capacity of my truck is 1600lb's and I'll be right at that number when I'm towing (me, wife, dog, cooler, generator, motorcycle, gas, hitch weight, etc...). The UVW of the camper is 5850lb. I'll also be towing with a Reese WD hitch. So can I/should I tow this TT with my truck or should I look at a bigger TV?

    I would do it. My 2015 Ram has a slightly lower payload than yours. Your GAWR is 3900 lbs per axle, which, in my opinion, gives you a fair amount of wiggle room. Make sure your tires are aired up fully, your hitch is adjusted correctly, and the trailer is loaded correctly, and go for it. Once again, JMHO.
