Wow that is so bad ..you won't be towing anything with this truck !! It truly is a Mall Queen, put 4 guys in the truck and your done

The Rams have lower payload numbers across the board when you do a side by side with the other 2 domestic brands. I'm waiting on delivery of my new Chev. (5.3 1500 with Max Trailering pkg and an advertised payload of approx 1750 with the Crew Cab) The best I could find in a Crew Cab Ram was approx 1400 and I need to go up rather than down in payload capacity this time.
Dodge is flooding the market with deeply-discounted trucks (MSRP is a joke) but they are catering to the urban pickup owner rather than those who use a truck to tow and/or haul cargo. You can't blame them, that is the real sweet spot for 1500 sales.
I applaud the inclusion of a diesel in a 1500 and hope it is a sign of things to come, but this iteration is just a toe in the water IMO.
