Ram 1500 3.55?
I have been looking at Ram 1500 4 door. Looking at years 2011 to 2013, Most likely 2012. Gear ratio 3.55. Thought need the 3.92 gear, now not sure (see below). I don't ever plan towing greater than 65...

In going to the link for Towing "Look up my vehicle" I noticed that some VIN's showed 8800 and some 10800#, yet the Build PDF from the other link states 3.55 gear. With that got me thinking maybe I could get a RAM with a 3.55 gear and tow 10800# if the site states it at 10800#.
Did you verify the gear ratio on the ones rated to tow 10000?
3.55 may be a "standard" ratio, listed under standard features, but if you go down to options, it may list a different ratio, i.e. 3.92.
GM was doing that as of last year, and I wouldn't put it past Ram to do the same thing. Heck they'd list one ratio on the dealer website, and when you went to look at the truck it had a completely different ratio.
