I am planning on purchasing a tt with a dry weight of 5500 lbs. I am also looking for a used half ton truck between years 2004 and 2008. I am considering a 2006 dodge ram 1500 Laramie with a 5.7litre v8 engine. Will that pull potentially 7000lb comfortably or will it be a strain? I'm trying to avoid a 3/4 ton but I'm not sure what I should be looking at in the way of a half-ton. I could use some advice. Thank you

“Pulling” capacity isn’t anywhere as important as TV payload capacity. What is the ram’s payload limit and what will you be putting in the Ram plus tongue weight and WDH hitch and accessories?
