So why would anyone buy a 150-1500 for towing if you can get a better ride with a 2500 and have a more capable truck? Just asking, and with the 6.4 (SRT engine) that EB will be left in the dust.
The 2014 Ram 2500 also will offer a segment exclusive rear air suspension system. An air bag replaces
the coil spring much like the Ram 1500. Load capacity is not sacrificed and the 2014 Ram 2500’s best-
in-class ride and handling gets even better, crushing the competition with two doses of engineering
innovation (five-link coil standard and air suspension option). Another benefit to the new air suspension
design is the load-leveling capability, which automatically detects load on the rear suspension from a
trailer or payload. The air pressure increases until the vehicle reaches normal ride height, leveling the
truck, improving stability and loaded ride
I think the air suspension will be a game-changer; the best argument for a half-ton over a 3/4 or 1-ton is ride quality, and rear air could go a long way to closing (maybe even eliminating) the ride quality gap.
Keeping an open mind as I always do, but I've already begun socking away down payment money for a '14 2500 6.4L with rear air suspension :C
