I think RAM has got the sizing right with the 3L. It will have the power needed and be a lot more fuel efficient.

I would NOT buy a 240hp, 5000lb+ truck. That's early 90's power lever. And don't count on the 8 speed. That 8 speed only turns horsepower into push at the wheels, you cannot multiply torque into horsepower, the diesel ram will be pokey, and slower with a load. I'm thinkin 0-60 around 10 seconds, and prolly over 30 with a 5K trailer. Never mind the cold climate implications of a European motor in North America.
The Cummins seems overkill, but if it has 300hp, well, that matches the BASE engines on 1/2 ton trucks.
