Dodge 2500 or 3500 for a Travel Trailer
Trying to decide on a Dodge 2500 or 3500 truck for a 25' travel trailer. I sure like the stability of the one-ton trucks, but getting around town might be easier in a 3/4 ton. What's your opinion,...

I ended up buying a 2015 RAM DRW 3500 when looking for a 2500 diesel 4WD. It was cheaper. I drive it everyday for work and it is our preferred vehicle for road trips without the 28 TT. Personal experience is that it does not ride like a log wagon although I carry about 200-250 lbs in the truck's bed.
Upside, I'll never wear it out, great ride and there have been no problems with the truck or pulling the trailer. Great driving position.
Downside, slightly less fuel mileage, curb the rear tires-I forget there're out there. Can's just park anywhere. My daughter has a RAM 2500 4WD and likes to drive the 3500 more. She tends to "borrow" it.
Would I do it again, short answer yes.
