The real tow rating of a truck has always been the GCWR minus the actual weight of the truck. Ram doesn't calculate their tow ratings differently than anyone else. Basically with just a driver and half a tank of fuel in the truck, period. Published tow ratings for North American trucks have never meant anything in the real world..
Shiner Brocks " contribution " is a mass of halftruths,outright lies and having no knowlege at all.
The main problem if you have a US Pickup and want to drive it using a car licence it has to be under10,000lbs. As a result a RAM 1500 Wwould have no payload, a 2500 about 1700lb but a 3500 has a basic light truck licence no restrictions. Although ADR registration takes 6000lb from the GCVWR compared to the US
Is this really about trying to portray the "coveted" little chit box utes as more capable than American pickup trucks? Or is it even more worthless drivel than that?
