Tow Vehicle Feedback Appreciated
We just bought the Coachmen Freedom Express Liberty Edition 320BHDS in October. Base Weight is 7,374 and the sticker on the camper says GVWR is 7,900. I have a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD 5.7l Hemi Quad...

If these numbers are right you only have 526 lbs of carrying capacity in the trailer...the Coachmen site says the GVWR is "TBA" (to be announced).
That trailer will be a handful for the truck, but if tows fine thats a good start. I would pack the trailer like you are ready to go camping and then get the truck and trailer weighed. That will give you an idea of whether you are overweight and if so by how much, and then you can make the decision about upgrading the truck based on facts.
