I have a 2014 3500 RAM DRW. Also a 19K toyhauler. The truck handles it great! The EB is fantastic! Most, if not all, reviews say the Cummins/RAM EB is the best one out there. That truck WILL handle the 19K trailer fine. Get 3.73 rears. Unless in big hills all the time, the 4.10 is overkill. 3.42 will have it shifting more. 3.73 good compromise.
