Also to add to your list -
No matter what size 5er you tow you need a MDT with a Detroit diesel outfitted with overload suspension. Anything less your insurance won't cover you and you're going to kill someone.

Summary of what i noticed on this forum:
The F150 with Ecoboost can tow anything ever made
1 Ton SRW with Turbo diesel canโt tow anything
Maybe a little exaggerated but many will see my point.

Lol, I give up. You're right. The only truck that is built should only be a DRW. Why build anything else. DRW is better at everything so it's obvious that there should be 4 wheels on the back of everything no matter what.
They're just better at stability and taking weight, owning them all my life....they are NOT good in snow empty and you almost always have to park in the back of a parking lot......;)

The gooseneck trailer we use at work weighs a hair over 7k. It's just a normal 30' tandem dually that most people use. Load an 11k skid steer with attachments on it and it is over 18k. Loaded correctly and it is easily towed with SRW trucks.
It's ALL about pin weight. But the extra MASS of a DRW does help with control in a "OH SH!T" moment.
I think you need to look up the definition of mass.:S

I don't know about GM or Ram, but 2018 Ford F350 Diesel SRW will tow a 18,000 GVW trailer.
It will tow more than that.
And stay under the RGAWR? Chris
