2013 Ram 1500 tire pressure

Can anyone give me some insight on what I should be running my tire pressures at while towing my travel trailer. I know cold inflation under normal conditions is 40psi. I thought I saw a chart somewhere that showed what loaded tire pressure should be, but can't seem to find it. Any help is appreciated.

The topic is for ram 1500, not the HD series. The Holy Sticker from my grocery-getter Outdoorsman.

No need to run the max pressure. 2013, why have you replaced your tires already, that the sticker is no longer applicable?

My 13 came with range E tires for some reason, the sidewall is 80psi, which is ridiculous for the light weight of the truck, it would be like driving on stone tires.

that right
different tires have different max tire pressure
that sticker is only for what tires came from the factory on your truck

Ok, go by what the tire says not the sticker on the door for towing?
