Just curious why you wouldn't consider a diesel? Especially if you are thinking of switching to a 5th wheel in the future..
I have never owned a diesel but have considered one and have not eliminated it.
With that said, after never having experienced the power of a diesel, I am more than satisfied with the 2003 V10 4.30. Three years ago we pulled our combo through Colorado, Utah, and Arizona. I was more than please with the performance. I hit a cat scale and the combo weighed in at a shade under 18,000. I was able to hold 55+ on all inclines but one where I dropped to 45-50 mph. I am assuming the newer technology and more gears in the tranny, that the New Ram 6.4's would tow at least as good and probably better than my current rig and probably do a bit better on mileage. I avg 7.8-8.5 without babying it. Non towing has only gotten better than 11mpg once.
