Don't know what numbers tow wise the 3.0VM will have but a 2013 SLT CC SWB 5.7 3:92 gears 4X2 has a max trailer tow rating of 10,300# with a payload load of 1659# so when can I send you a friends discount for your new Ram. LINKY
Really, Cause I see no mention of the Diesel in that link. None whatsoever.
And let's see here with the #'s:
8k trailer, 800lbs tongue
Driver @ 200
2x friends @ 250
That's 1550 lbs right there.
And it's still outclassed in just about every configuration by Ford. F150 Payload
F150 Towing
I would imagine the same is true for GM in that it as better capabilities than Ram.
BTW there is a BIG difference between a "trailer" and a RV and that is why Ram suggests using a HD class truck for RV towing.
Interesting way to spin it when the capabilities are not there...
