Thanks for the insight. Again, this is new to us.
I looked up our vin # on the dodge website and it says that the max payload is 1436 lbs and the max towing is 8,600 lbs with a max GCVW at 14,150.
In terms of cargo, we usually do not load up with water in the tanks, we normally do not bring bikes and out trips consists of 2-3 day jaunts so interms of alot of clothes and gear I guess it's about average.
I guess I need to weigh my Dodge and get a sense of its actual weight? Online it says the curb weight is 5350- but for some reason I don't believe this.
Anybody have a Dodge 1500 and how is it towing??
