Bumper pull versus fifth wheel
I pull a 22 ft. bumper pull wt. 3700# with a 2018 Dodge Ram 1500 4X4 3.6L gas with no problem. Will my PU handle a 24 ft. 5th wheel?

This is a 4550 gvwr 5th wheel that will work with the small v-6. OP disregard those that say a 1/2 ton truck can't safely tow a 5th wheel trailer. All 1/2 ton trucks are not all the same in fact they have a broader range of gvwrs/RAWRs than any other truck on the market.
Hell we've had 1/2 ton trucks with GVWRS into the 8000 lb range and 4800-6000 rawr and are built to pull GN and 5th wheel trailers.
More than likely your 1500 Ram has a small side of a 6xxx lb gvwr and 3900 rawr....so naturally it requires one of the smaller 5th wheel trailers.
Most folks with 1/2 ton trucks and a low hp engine go with a TT.
