I just got back from a 1200 mile trip towing my 5th wheel with my 12 Ram 2500 CTD. I had plenty of HP/TQ to keep up with the rest of the people towing in CA. I had plenty of power to pass when needed. I had plenty of power to set the cruise to what ever speed I wanted when running the freeways or long stretches of hwy.
To say stupid stuff like "Towing just got easier" or whatever brand "just got left behind" is child like. Even if I had less HP/TQ I still would've had no trouble keeping up with all the other RV'ers out towing.
In the real world all that power really is meaningless. If you need to buy the biggest baddest truck to make yourself feel better then you really need some therapy.
