Hello Ram 1500 Diesel!
Have been driving/testing these for a while now, but couldn't say anything, until today! And yes it'll have plenty of towing capacity... Chrysler wrote: Ram to Build Industry's Only Light-duty...

This is great news. Now Dodge 1500 owners can start their trucks and let them idle for 30 minutes before going after milk, and bread just like their bigger HD truck brethren.
And you HD Cummins guys will need to exercise restraint to not refer to your 1500 cousins as posers. They just want to fit in with the cool kids.
You need to enlighten this guy I work with. He has a 2006 Cummins (he never calls his truck a Dodge, it is always his Cummins). Anyhow, he will start it up 30 minutes before driving it anywhere. He will idle it before coming into work, before going home for lunch, and before going home for the day. He lives less than 2 miles from work, so I am quite sure his idle time out weighs his driving time by a 5 fold......
